Dear Sir or Madam, In the cold season I often see people trying to open doors with their long-sleeve over their hands or with an elbow. Certainly not the most elegant way to avoid skin contact with potential microbes on door handles, but quite effective. Unfortunately, this technique does not work for patients and hospital staff. For this reason, researchers work on new surface coatings on which viruses and bacteria have no chance of survival. How they work and where to find them you can read in our current Special. Have fun reading, Simone Ernst Editorial team COMPAMED-tradefair.com PS: If you are interested in 3D printing, then take a look at our latest video. Production and material selection are explained here!
