Assessment of bacterial contamination rate in the public transportation system and bacterial diseases threat

When we use public transportation to get to our destination we might not think about germs and bacteria which threaten our health in these vehicles. In this article, our purpose is to assess the contamination rate in each part of public transportation and compare these rates with each other. Briefly, we have mentioned in what way and by which pathogen can bacteria be dangerous for passengers of these vehicles. it is crucial to assess these factors in order to prevent epidemics, diseases, and problems that are involved with bacteria spreading in public vehicles. Bacteria species that are assessed are; Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Enterococcus, E.coli, Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Acinetobacter, Haemophilus, Shigella, and Bacillus subtilis. Vehicles that are used to assess these bacterial contaminations contain non-taxi transporter cars, cabs, private cabs, buses, and vansthese bacteria were chosen after primary identifications by comparing the rates among all existing bacteria.all standards were noted by the time of sampling in order to have an accurate study and result . by getting informed about the contamination rate in different public transportations people who are in danger (like immune-suppressed people ) could use safer systems depend on their situation . also , this study can help town executive directors in order to make a safer public transportation system in order to improve health among people who use this system daily.
