Made by British health authorities, Initial Washroom Hygiene, the study also revealed that in the skin bags and bags that contain the most bacteria, the porous texture of the skin material provides bacteria. A perfect environment to grow and spread.

Scientists recommend that women should regularly wash their hands and clean their bags with antibacterial towels or gel to prevent infection.

Initial Hygiene technical director Peter Barratt said: "Handbags are often in contact with our hands and many other objects, so the risk of infection with different bacteria from bags is very high, especially when the bags are usually less cleaned '.

According to Peter Barratt, when these bacteria enter the bag, they can easily spread to other places through their hands. Regular hand washing is essential to prevent the presence of bacteria from the beginning, and women should also clean their bags to prevent the growth and transmission of bacteria.

Earlier, the agency also published another research result that said the kitchen is a very dirty place.
