Do I need a steam and vacuum for steam to be effective or is a steam only system just as good?

VapourTek Steam Cleaners - FAQ's
There is no doubt that on floors a steam and vacuum does the job more effectively as you do the job once. However a steam only system is easier to clean appliances such as the oven as the hose and handle are smaller making access easier. There is no perfect solution though both type of systems will clean the same amount of areas.

What are bacteria and viruses?

Frequently Asked Questions | CDC Get Smart
Bacteria are single-celled organisms usually found all over the inside and outside of our bodies, except in the blood and spinal fluid. Many bacteria are not harmful. In fact, some are actually beneficial. However, disease-causing bacteria trigger illnesses, such as strep throat and some ear infections. Viruses are even smaller than bacteria. A virus cannot survive outside the body's cells. It causes illnesses by invading healthy cells and reproducing.

Are steam cleaners an effective way to keep wood floors clean?

Some models are designed for use on hardwood floors. Others are not. Check with the manufacturer to find out if your cleaner is appropriate for use on your wood floor. Remember that water is wood's NO.1 enemy. If the finish is worn or scratched, steam could seep into your wood floors, eventually causing damage. Keep in mind that experts say the best way to clean a wood floor is to wipe up any spills immediately with a soft, dry cloth.

Is the mask effective against bacteria and viruses other than those listed?

Emry Trading - Virogard
Possibly, but in the absence of additional independent testing we cannot be assured that is so. There are possibly millions of variants of bacteria and viruses that can cause illness in humans. It is impractical to test against all of those and each individual test is both time consuming and expensive. Virogard testing has been focussed on the more common concerns and additional testing will be undertaken as the need arises. We are planning on full trials with TB in 2008.

Scott Laboratories - Information Center - FAQ - Fermentation...
Like SO2, a few lactic strains show resistance to lysozyme. Bench-top trials MUST be performed to determine the effectiveness and correct addition rate of lysozyme for your wine. If the lactic population is below 106 cfu/mL and MLF has started, use 150-400 ppm of lysozyme now. If the population is above 106 cfu/mL, wait for MLF to complete and immediately add 150-400 ppm of lysozyme. Lysozyme cannot be removed by filtration.
