- - - - attach themselves by secreting a slimy glue like substance- slim germs that other germs like to live in
      - layer of saran wrap that bacteria produce to defend themselves against disinfectants- their line of defense
      - houses and protects bad bacteria
      - According to the CDC & NIH, 90% of all harmful bacteria live in biofilm and cannot be cleaned away with the strongest disinfectants
      - ex. plaque- cant get off easily- can either physically remove it or use biology to remove it
      - dust is made from skin cells
      - It is usually invisible, so surfaces that appear clean can actually be crawling with harmful bacteria.
        
        With that being said, it seems nearly impossible to tell if a surface is clean.
        
        However, biofilm has one dead giveaway - ATP
      - living, reproducing microorganisms such as bacteria
      - atp metering
        
        what the levels of clean mean
        
        different types of cleaners
        
        detergent
        
        chemistry to clean that lipid oil
        
        -synonym for synthetic soap- manmade soap
        
        surfactants
        
        almost like a magnet- opposites attract and when it hits the oils it kills (polarity)
        
        sub of synthetic- another chem added to make the juice more absorbable
        
        dish soap can break down oils
        
        disinfectants
        
        synthetic
        
        disinfectants cannot get rid of (break down) oils
        
        cdc requires you to clean and then disinfect
        
        you can only get rid of oils with oils
        
        soap
        
        natural way of getting rid of dirt and soils
        
        made of lye and lipids
        
        residential cleaners vs commercial cleaners
        
        need something to combat this biofilm
        
        chemistry vs biology
        
        Microbiology- safer choice, creates hostile environment for bacteria
        
        Competitive exclusion
        
        chemistry is bad at removing bacteria good at removing dirt and soils
        
        zbs probiotic cleaners
        
        cleaning with multitask
        
        1 more item...
        
        99.9 vs 99.99999
        
        theres a difference between 99% committed and 100% committed
        
        you are not cleaning for 4 people you are cleaning for hundreds of people
        
        What is ATP
        
        If it's alive, it has ATP, so the more ATP you find on a surface, the more bacteria & harmful lifeforms are present on the surface.
        
        These little molecules capture the energy released when food is broken down in order to fuel life
        
        ATP is the energy molecule found in all living things
        
        how to measure biofilm
    - - not alive- cannot kill it can only inactivate it
      - have to have a host cell to survive- to get energy (ATP)
      - survive and reproduce my attacking a host cell
        
        like a tick/leech
      - microscope is required to see viruses
      - 10-100x smaller than the smallest bacteria
    - - alive
      - single celled
      - have all components to survive and reproduce
      - some bacteria can cause disease but less than 1% make us sick
      - many species are essential for our health and most of our ecosystem
      - good vs bad bacteria
        
        good bacteria
        
        in our gut microbiome
        
        in probiotic yogurt and supplements
        
        help break down food, keep you healthy
        
        gut bacteria helps speed up your digestive process
        
        helps checks and balance system in the immune system
        
        help break down carbs (sugar) and toxins and help us absorb the fatty acid that cells need to grow
        
        help protect cells in intestines from invading pathogens and promote repair of damaged tissue
        
        most importantly by having good bacteria in your body bad bacteria do not have a chance to grow and cause disease
        
        Research suggests that efforts to make a cleaner environment, free from bacteria, are contributing to the rise in obesity, cancer, and heart disease. [6] Experts are trying to figure out how “probiotics” (foods like yogurt with active cultures and dietary supplements that contain live bacteria) can improve our health. Research is underway so that in the future, specific bacteria may be prescribed as individually tailored treatments for patients.
        Our immune system needs the right combination of bacteria so we can stay healthy and rely less on medications.
        
        bad bacteria
        
        leads to many chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease are associated with poor oral health often because of an imbalance of bacteria within our mouth.
