“…In our research, a highly significant association (p < 0.001 *) was observed between SSFs' bacterial contamination and the time of sample collection (90.0% of the sample collected in the afternoon, during the maximum workload of the SSFs, yielded bacterial growth). Similarly, some studies focused on the change in microbial contamination load before and after work and showed significantly increased microbial contamination at the end of the working day [1,29,30]. Wu and his colleagues reported more detection of microbial contaminants on HTS of the outpatient SSFs in the swabs collected after work than those collected before it [1].…”
