Can black fiberglass tissue be used in healthcare facilities to prevent infections?

Black fiberglass tissue can be used in healthcare facilities for certain applications, such as insulation or structural reinforcement, due to its strength and durability. However, it is not typically used for direct patient contact or in areas where it might contribute to infection control. For infection prevention, healthcare facilities rely on materials that are easy to clean and disinfect, such as stainless steel, plastic, and certain types of fabric that are resistant to microbial growth. Black fiberglass tissue may not meet these criteria and could potentially harbor pathogens if not properly maintained, thus it is not recommended for use in areas critical for infection control.
