Efficacy studies on disinfectants and biocides
Efficacy studies on disinfectants and biocides are available in the medical, veterinary and public health fields.
- Bactericidal activity against gram + and gram - bacteria: CEN standards applicable: prEN 12054, EN 1499, EN 1500, EN 12791, EN 13727, EN 14651, EN 1656, EN 14349, EN 1276, EN 13697
- Mycobactericidal activity against mycobacteria: CEN standards applicable: EN 14348, EN 14563, EN 14204
- Fungicidal activity against yeasts and moulds: CEN standards applicable: EN 13624, EN 14562, EN 1657, EN 1650, EN 13697
- Sporicidal activity against bacterial spores: CEN/AFNOR standards applicable: EN 13704, AFNOR NF T 72-190
- Bactericidal activity against Legionella: CEN standards applicable: EN 13623
- Activity against other organisms like antipediculosis, insecticidal, repellent, rodenticidal, and anti-algal efficacy
Efficacy studies on surface embedded biocides
- Bactericidal activity against gram+ and gram - bacteria: ASTM/ISO standards applicable: ASTM E 2180, ISO 22196, ASTM E 2149, ASTM G 21
- Efficacy against algae: According German guidelines VdL RL07
Efficacy studies against bacterial biofilm
Standard EN ISO/TS 15883-5.
This assay evaluates biocidal efficacy of a disinfectant and biomass reduction against a standard biofilm. Furthermore, experimental design can be modified to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment in preventing biofilm generation.
Efficacy studies against viruses
- CEN standards applicable: EN 14476, EN 14675
- By using molecular biology techniques (Real Time PCR)
