Best Answer

Nanotechnology is often used to create coatings made up of silver ions. These attack the outer cell of the microbe, break down its DNA and then mulch to prevent cell replication. Most silver based hygienic coatings use an inorganic solution (silver chloride). While this is also effective against bacteria, it is susceptible to visible discolouration. This therefore makes silver ion technology more appropriate for hygiene coatings, which need to retain long-term efficacy. Look at some medical journals on the subject or related research institutes such as Silverhouse.

May water based stains be used over oil based?

You'll need to use a stripper to remove any oil based coatings and stains prior to coating with a water based stain. Either a Methyl-chloride stripper, or, if your state or local ordinances do not allow that type, an overnight citrus based stripper will work well.

How are fast food restaurants regulated hygiene both in factories and stores?

Food hygiene proficiency is regulated by the food hygiene regulation (852/2004/EU), and the Food Act (23/2006, amendment 1137/2008). Operators in the food business are required to ensure at their own expense that employees handling food are given training and instructions relevant to their work tasks. Employees must have a hygiene passport if they in their work handle unpackaged easily perishable foods. Such foods are, for example, milk, meat and fish. Cafeterias, restaurants, institutional kitchens, various kiosks, fast-food restaurants, food stores, for example, and also many factories manufacturing foods are work places were the employees are required to have a hygiene passport. It is required that one within three months of commencing work must acquire a hygiene passport. These three months retroactively are calculated also to include such prior work in the food business where hygiene passport is required.
