{"product_id":"glo-germ-powders","title":"Glo Germ Fluorescent Training Powder – UV Hand Cross-Contamination Powder","description":"\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 3 []\"\u003eGlo Germ Fluorescent Training Powder provides a practical way to demonstrate the spread of contamination that would normally be difficult to see. The powder contains fine fluorescent particles, approximately 5 microns in size, designed to simulate the transfer characteristics of bacteria. When introduced onto a surface or object, the powder can transfer through contact to hands, equipment and other surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing a suitable UV inspection light, trainers can reveal where the fluorescent material has travelled, providing a clear visual demonstration of how contamination can spread beyond its original source. This makes Glo Germ Powder particularly useful for cross-contamination training, environmental cleaning inspections, infection prevention education and PPE training.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe powder can also be used to assess surface cleaning. After a small amount has been applied to selected locations, the surfaces are cleaned using normal procedures and inspected under UV light.
