Glo Germ Oil

The Nasco Glo Germ Oil is another product designed for educational purposes, particularly for teaching and monitoring proper handwashing techniques and general infection control practices. Here are some key points about it:

1. Purpose: Similar to the Glo Germ Powder, the Glo Germ Oil is used to simulate the presence of germs. It contains a special oil that fluoresces under UV light, allowing users to visualize areas where the “germs” are present.
2. Training and Monitoring: The Glo Germ Oil is particularly useful for teaching proper handwashing techniques. It can be applied to hands before washing to simulate the presence of germs and then checked afterward with a UV light to see how effectively the hands were cleaned.
3. Infection Control: In addition to handwashing, the Glo Germ Oil can be used to demonstrate general infection control practices in various settings, such as healthcare facilities, food service environments, schools, and more.
4. Quantity: The product comes in an 8-ounce bottle, which is typically sufficient for approximately 75 to 100 demonstrations, depending on the amount used each time.
5. Detection: The oil is visible under UV light, which is usually provided as part of a Glo Germ kit. This makes it easy to detect and visualize areas where germs are present.

Overall, the Glo Germ Oil is a valuable tool for educators, trainers, and healthcare professionals to demonstrate the importance of proper hand hygiene and infection control measures in preventing the spread of germs and illnesses. It offers a hands-on and visual way to engage participants in learning about these crucial concepts.
