Did You Know The Hidden Purposes Of These Everyday Household Items?

Germ-Fighting Doorknobs

Have you ever heard of antibacterial doorknobs? Well, they exist and happen to have been around for a long time. They are no other than handles that are made from brass. There is no state-of-the-art technology used to create them; just one material is applied to allow them to fight viruses and bacteria. Of course, that would be copper, which primarily composes the material brass alloy.

According to scientific studies, the metal can destroy germs and prevent them from spreading. It’s the reason why it’s utilized mainly in clinics and hospitals. Unfortunately, brass door handles and other fixtures lost popularity in the past decades; maybe it’s time to bring them back into fashion.
