Laundry Machine Microbiome Targeted Locus (Loci)
Household washing machines launder soiled clothes and textiles, but do not sterilize them. We investigated the microbial exchange streams occurring in five different household washing machines. Samples from a new cotton T-shirt were laundered together with a normal laundry load. Analysis was performed on the influent water and the ingoing cotton samples, as well as the greywater and the washed cotton samples.
