Abstract

See full text

An electrification system is used to prevent the transmission of pathogens by dermal contact. The electrification system includes a skin-bracing object, a power supply, and at least one resistor. The skin-bracing object includes an object body and a conductive feature. The skin-bracing object is an object that regularly comes into physical contact with a user's skin. The object body is the structure of the skin-bracing object and can be, but is not limited to, a pillowcase, a bed sheet, a bed pad, a blanket, a piece of medical gauze, a face mask, a set of medical scrubs, or a food preparation surface. The power supply, the resistor, and the conductive feature are electrically connected in series to each other. Thus, the conductive feature carrier an electrical current to electrify pathogens that come into physical contact with the conductive feature.
