متن کاملEffects of cleaning and disinfection in reducing the spread of Norovirus contamination via environmental surfaces.
A reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction assay was used to study the transfer of Norovirus (NV) from contaminated faecal material via fingers and cloths to other hand-contact surfaces. The results showed that, where fingers come into contact with virus-contaminated material, NV is consistently transferred via the fingers to melamine surfaces and from there to other typical hand-contact...

We suggest a general approach to alleviating this problem, using a version of the weighted bootstrap. The idea is to “tilt” away from the contaminated distribution by a given (but arbitrary) amount, in a direction that minimises a measure of the new distri...
