Long nails may make a fashion statement, but there are microorganisms lurking underneath that can cause potential infections, according to a recent USA Today report.
“The longer the nail, the more surface area there is for microorganisms to adhere,” said Jeffrey Kaplan, a biology professor at American University.
“Studies have found 32 different bacteria and 28 different fungi underneath fingernails.”
And whether they’re artificial nails, long natural nails, gel nails, acrylic nails or just nail polish, they increase the probability that microorganisms lurk underneath them, which in turn makes it more difficult to wash off with simple handwashing, Kaplan added.

GHGSatArtwork: GHGSat flies the highest-resolution methane sensors in orbitThe world's first commercial satellite dedicated to monitoring carbon dioxide from orbit will launch later this year.
It will be put up by the Canadian company GHGSat, which already flies six spacecraft tracking methane emissions.
The new platform will use the same shortwave infrared sensor but be tuned to CO2's specific light signature in the atmosphere. The satellite will have a resolution at ground level of 25m, meaning it will be able to see major individual sources.
Planning to stake out a good spot to view the total solar eclipse next month? You won’t be alone — and officials are warning that the massive public interest could lead to hours of standstill road traffic, airspace crowded with leisure and commercial pilots, and disruptions at a host of airports.
The Federal Aviation Administration has warned that air traffic delays are likely on April 8, when the eclipse will sweep through North America from Mexico to Canada and plunge a narrow path into complete darkness in the middle of the day.

Izzy Gleicher and Felicia Cannon remain on the block, with one of them almost certainly going home. For now, there is no unique twist that we know of that “Big Brother” might throw our way. It’s almost a guarantee that The Professors will be down by one at the end of Week 6. Remember, the twist promised by Julie Chen in the last episode was related to the jury, so don’t expect another secret save as we saw with Jag Bains in Week 4.
