Thanks for that article. 

Any comments on cleaning chemicals? I was looking at products and active ingredients. The amount we will be expected to use in a class/lab setting will expose people to large amounts of the chemical repeatedly. Cost is also a factor. 

I am looking for the best chemical that could be purchased cheaply, in bulk and would not cause harm (asthma etc) to users. The air in rooms would have to have a lot of chemical residue in them.  Even well ventilated ones. 

My top choice is 0.5%hydrogen peroxide. 
Bleach diluted dailey is second in well ventilated labs. 

Thoughts?

Thanks,
