单身男子公寓细菌数超女子15倍

Some bachelor pads may contain more than 15 times the amount of bacteria than the homes of their female counterparts! Charles Gerba, professor of microbiology at the University of Arizona, says of the surfaces tested in the homes of single men, coffee tables and remote controls harbored the most bacteria.

单身男子公寓里的细菌数目竟然比单身女子居所内的细菌数目高出15倍还多！亚利桑那大学微生物学教授查尔斯称，男生喊的居所里、咖啡桌上乃至远程遥控器上的细菌数目最多。

However, the researchers also found more than twice the number of bachelorette front doorknobs were contaminated with bacteria as compared with bachelor doorknobs. The study also finds 63 percent of bachelors' nightstands and 60 percent of bachelorettes' nightstands tested positive for bacteria.

然而，研究人员也发现，女子公寓门上的球形门把手更易被细菌污染，且污染几率是男子公寓门把手的两倍还多。研究还发现，而63%的单身汉们的床头柜在细菌检测中呈阳性，60%的单身女子的床头柜上有细菌。

The study determined bacteria levels on frequently touched surfaces such as front door knob, night stand, remote control and coffee table in 60 homes of singles - half male and half female.

在研究中，研究人员检测了60个单身公寓（一半属于单身汉，一般属于单身女子）中常被触碰表面的细菌水平，检测对象包括前门球形门把手、床头柜、远程遥控器以及咖啡桌。

"There's no doubt about it - bachelors had a far bigger quantity of bacteria in their apartments - but bachelorette pads weren't squeaky clean either," Charles said.

“毫无疑问——单身汉们的公寓里细菌数目更多——但是单身女士也好不到哪里去，”查尔斯说道。
