Just How Buggy is Your Phone?
What item in your home crawls with the most germs? If you say ___21___ toilet seat, you鈥檙e wrong. Kitchen sponges top
the list. But cell phones are pretty dirty too. They contain around 10 times as many germs as toilet seats. People touch their
phones, laptops, and other digital devices all day long, yet rarely clean them.
In one incident, a thief paid a terrible price for stealing a germy cell phone. He stole it from a hospital in Uganda during a

confess
锛?/p>
to the crime.
___24___ in that unusual case a cell phone carried dangerous bacteria, not all germs are bad. Most cause no harm. In fact,

It turns out that the types of germs that you apply all over your phone or tablet are different from ___25___ of your friends
and family. They鈥檙e like a fingerprint that could identify you. Some day in the future, investigators may use these microbial

In a 2017 study, researchers sampled a range of surfaces in 22 participants鈥?nbsp;homes, ___26___ countertops and floors to
computer keyboards and mice. Then they tried to match the microbial fingerprints on each object to its owner. The office
equipment was easiest to match to its owner. In an ___27___

early
锛?/p>
study, a different group of researchers found that they
could use microbial fingerprints to identify the person who ___28___
锛?/p>

锛?/p>
a computer keyboard even after the keyboard
sat untouched for two weeks at room temperature.
One day, microbial signatures might show ___29___ people have gone and what they have touched. They could prove
