In an observational study, the sleeves and pockets of physicians' white coats often directly or indirectly contacted patients and environmental surfaces. DNA markers on the sleeves or pockets were frequently transferred to surfaces and patients. These findings suggest that contaminated white coats have the potential to contribute to pathogen transmission.
