    This document analyzes the microbial load on handrails at St. Albert Building in University of Santo Tomas- Legazpi. Previous studies have found that surfaces like doorknobs and handrails can harbor bacteria and be a source of infection. The goal of this study is to isolate and identify bacteria present on the handrails at St. Albert Building in order to determine potential health risks posed by microbial contamination of common surfaces.

    INTRODUCTION handrails at University of Santo Thomas –


    Legazpi, St. Albert Building.
    The human body can accumulate a lot of
    different diseases caused by bacteria. People may
    not consider this as a threat to their health when
    in reality it may cause severe sickness to the
    system (Park, 2017). Bacteria are found in every
    habitat on Earth: soil, rock, oceans and
    even arctic snow. Some live in or on other
    organisms including plants and animals including
    humans. It can also cling to metals that are used
    in everyday situations. Just like doorknobs,
    faucets, shopping carts, public tables and
    handrails. These are some of the common places
    where bacteria may lurk without people knowing
    that they exist.
    Researches have found a similar study.
    According to Amala and Monsi from AJMAH
    6(2), a major source of hospital acquired infection
    was the contamination of inanimate object
    surfaces and cross- transmission of virulent
    microorgranisms among critically ill
    patients.This contamination occurred by transfer
    at microbes on the hands, nostrils, etc. of workers
    in health facilities as well as from patients and
    visitors.Based on the previous study the
    infections are serious health issues in the health-
    care system.
    The goal of this research is to isolate and
    determine the important bacteria associated with
