Participant Details
Original Note:
The study being referenced here showed an average growth of about 10x on the headphones themselves, NOT inside the ears of participants. No clinical significance was noted, and the study only suggested that headphones should be cleaned before being shared with others. https://doi.org/10.1288/00005537-199201000-00017 https://blog.fauquierent.net/2016/06/can-ear-plugs-cause-700-fold-increase.html
