Orthotic Thermoplastic Demonstrates a Similar Contamination Potential with <i>Bacillus</i> Bacteria Recovered from Thermoplastic Radiation Therapy Patient Masks

Thermoplastics used to construct a variety of patient medical devices can become contaminated by harmful bacteria. We investigated whether two different <i>Bacillus</i> species recovered from patient radiation therapy thermoplastic masks could similarly contaminate thermoplastic material used to con...
