I read an article in Science News that describes how copper surfaces in an operating room can cut infections down by 50%. Just having copper surfaces, such as doorknobs, bedframes, etc, made a huge difference.
Not sure about the policy here about posting links, but it was a major hospital study.
I'm betting that copper surfaces would help cut down on beer infections too :fro:
edit: I used to have to use copper-based paint on my sailboat in the Gulf, to keep the critters off. Copper is somehow toxic.
