Abstract

This European Standard specifies a test method (phase 1) and the minimum requirements for bactericidal activity of chemical disinfectant and antiseptic products that form a homogeneous physically stable preparation in water. This European Standard is applicable to products for use in agricultural (but not crop protection), domestic service, food hygiene and other industrial fields, institutional, medical and veterinary applications. NOTE 1 : Using this European Standard it is not possible to determine the bactericidal activity of the undiluted product as some dilution is always produced by adding the inoculum. NOTE 2 : This European Standard does not evaluate the activity of a product for an intended use. More specific test methods described in European Standards (see introduction) are used for further assessment of the efficacy of chemical disinfectants and antiseptics for a defined purpose. NOTE 3 : This method corresponds to a phase 1 test (see Annex G).
