Quantitative Method for Evaluating Bactericidal Activity of Textiles and Porous Materials and Articles
IBRG TEX13-005.05
This document describes a method to determine the basic antibacterial properties of textiles and porous materials and articles treated with a biocide with the intension of introducing disinfectant / hygienic properties. Samples are inoculated with defined suspensions of microorganisms and then incubated. The changes in the size of the populations both over time and on treated compared with untreated materials are used to describe the basic antimicrobial properties of the materials. The results obtained may not describe the performance of the treated materials under normal conditions of use. Changes in v1.03 Typographical corrections.
