Original title: Love coffee? Expert: Watch out for home coffee machines that make you sick
As a "fashionable" kitchen device, coffee machines are an indispensable device for many office buildings or homes. However, when you enjoy a delicious coffee, it has been thought that the coffee machine may also make you sick. Researchers at the National School of Medicine at the University of Toulouse in France observed and analyzed toxins produced by different types of fungi in indoor environments and found that toxic substances such as short-dense penicillin, paper grape spike mold, and plaque mold can spread with the flow of air generated by common home activities, such as walking, switching doors and windows.
in a study published in the American Journal of Applied and Environmental Microbiology, researchers say the steam spewed from coffee machines creates an enabling environment for fungal growth, and toxic substances produced during mold growth on walls can be inhaled into the body, which may be linked to pathological building syndrome.
Pathological building syndrome, also known as building syndrome, refers to the discomfort caused by people in buildings, including sore throat, itchy eyes, red eyes, cough, wheezing, itching or rash of the skin, headache, inattation, abnormal sense of smell, visual abnormalities, etc. Jean-Dennybay, one of the study's lead authors, said the coffee machine releases steam, which increases indoor humidity and is beneficial for fungal growth.
Danning, professor of infectious diseases at the University of Manchester in the UK, suggests that mold-growing wallpapers should be replaced or cleaned in a timely manner to avoid health problems. (Joe Ying )
