Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- 3M's (NYSE: MMM) Scotch-Brite™ Brand and Phylagen, a San Francisco-based biotech company specializing in optimizing indoor microbial life, have brought science-based data to home cleaning with the introduction of Scotch-Brite™ Clean Scan, the world's first consumer home cleaning efficacy test. Starting today, technology previously only available in
commercial settings is now available for home use. Clean Scan checks for microbial levels in the common areas of the home (kitchen and bathroom), providing lab-analyzed and personalized reports to help #people better understand the cleanliness of their homes.

The Scotch-Brite™ Brand is well known for its trusted and effective cleaning tools and now is taking it a step further with a new solution for testing your clean. Until now, we haven't really known if our cleaning efforts are working. Clean Scan provides a view of what is on the surfaces in our home and confirms we're cleaning effectively to remove harmful bacteria and viruses like the flu from our homes. It is clear cleaning is more important to Americans than ever before. On TikTok alone, there are more than 18.6B views onn #cleantok content!
Across 100 American homes, Scotch-Brite™ Brand and Phylagen data found that 1:

Approximately a third of the homes we tested had indicators of human fecal matter in the kitchen or bathroom.

Of the homes with human fecal matter, 9% found it only in their kitchens, not their bathrooms, before cleaning.

Approximately 50% of households still had human fecal matter present after cleaning.

Americans who are regularly cleaning their homes more than 2x a week are keeping their indoor spaces (kitchens and bathrooms) measurably cleaner 2 than those who only clean once a week or less. In other words, the extra efforts are paying off!

Homes with children under five years old are no dirtier than those without children.
