Studies have shown that the constant use of anti bacterials in our homes is what is causing the increase in allergies. I don't care how clean they make the counter. We are evolved in a bacteria infested environment. Get rid of the bacteria and we harm ourself.

Awwwwwww, gee whiz.
GSlob had me leaning toward believing this titania coating was no more harmful than a little hydrogen peroxide.
Now you have me flip-flopping back toward thinking that maybe it could be harmful, just like excessive use of antibiotic drugs like penicillin which the little bacterial beasties eventually mutate and become immune to.
Please have mercy on me. I'm just an engineer.
I understand things like basic chemistry, physics, electricity and crap like that,
but I get lost in the bio-specialty fields of microorganisms, organic chemistry, etc, etc.
Can anybody explain to me (simply please) how this titanium coating is different than the overuse of antibiotic DRUGS that is making the super bacteria evolve?
Sheeeeesh, I know we hafta keep things reasonably clean to avoid disease, but when does "clean" become "too clean" because the nasty organisms mutate into even worse vermin?

It may be different in that it does not promote resistant strains, I'm still on the fence myself on that one, the point I was making is that we need those bacteria for our own health. The increase in allergies may be caused by the over use of anti bacterials. Keeping things too clean turns our immune systems into couch potatoes.
