This is any inanimate material that absorbs and transmits infection.

This type of precaution includes the use of negative-pressure rooms and N95 particulate respirator masks.

These two vaccines must be stored at or below 5 degrees F and used within 30 minutes of reconstitution.

These are the component in the blood that attack and destroy organisms.
