Cellphones carry 10 times more bacteria than most toilet seats

 Your mobile phone may have more bacteria on an average than a toilet seat, a new study has claimed.

Researchers from the University of Arizona found that there were up to 10 times the amount of bugs which can cause nausea and stomach problems in mobile phones than were present in a lavatory, the Daily Mail reported.

Mobile phones are often passed between people which spreads the germs around— but they are never cleaned which means the diseases keep on building up, researchers said.

Charles Gerba, a microbiologist at the University of Arizona, said during his ongoing experiments he found that bugs get onto a phone because it is so close to our hands and mouths.

“Since mobiles are electronic items some people are reluctant about cleaning them. Phones are just not part of our cleaning routine whereas we should think about giving them a wipe with an antibacterial substance every now and then,” Gerba was quoted as saying by the paper.

Frequently Asked Questions - Sanchay Post Version 7.0

1. For SCS Accounts closed after completion of 8 years (extended accounts), interest for no. of days elapsed from date of maturity to date of closure is erroneously calculated at the rate of 9%. Post Maturity has to be paid for completed months only at SB rates of interest. Post Maturity Interest should be calculated manually at the time of closure. 2. After entering the details in SB >> ECS Debits & Credits form, the transactions are not reflected in LOT. After entering the details in the COUNTER login, the transaction should be authorized by the Supervisor. Only after the transaction is authorized by the supervisor, it will be reflected in the LOT. 3. Cleared RD PRSS/agent cheques are not shown in ‘RD PRSS Post Entries’ form for selection. While preparing the cheque list, select the scheme as ‘RDPRSS’ in case of agent’s providing softcopy of the list created through ‘RD Customer Package 3.0’ provided by SDC with version 6.6.1 .

An error message ‘Total amount does not tally’ is received when the cheque is selected for RDPRSS posting/RD bulk acceptance. What is the procedure for calculating cheque amount in case of RD PRSS/RD agents? RD cheques collected from customers / agents should be for amount payable after deduction of rebate and inclusive of default fee, if applicable. A separate cheque should be collected for each list. 6. We are unable to enter transactions for BPL accounts. For entering transactions in BPL accounts use the SB >> ECS - Debit and credit form (1310) >> Select manual and category as BPL. You will have to select category as INDP for INDP accounts, INWP for INWP accounts and so on. 7.
