Table?2 shows the number of mobile phones from which we isolated bacterial or fungal organisms during subsequent analysis of bacteriological swabs. Seventeen (16.6%) phones demonstrated no microbial growth, 66 (64.7%) grew one bacterial species, 12 (11.8%) grew two species and seven (6.9%) grew three or more. The most common group of bacteria isolated was coagulase-negative staphylococci, identified from 78 (76.5%) mobile phones. However, 12 (11.8%) mobile phones demonstrated growth of pathogenic bacterial species (i.e. bacteria likely to cause infection in a variety of situations, such as skin wounds and urinary catheters) (see Table?2).
