What is Bsen 13697?

Quantitative non-porous surface test for the evaluation of bactericidal and/or fungicidal activity of chemical disinfectants used in food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas. Products that can be tested.

What is en1275?

EN 1275 is a phase 1 suspension test for the evaluation of basic fungicidal or basic yeasticidal activity in chemical disinfectants. The result of a basic suspension test cannot be used to substantiate product claims and it is not valid for product registration.

What is en13697?

EN 13697 is a phase 2 step 2 carrier test performed on surface disinfectants intended for use in the food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas without mechanical action to test the efficacy of the product against bacteria and/or fungi. Yeast and fungi occur naturally in the environment.

What is suspension test microbiology?

In a suspension test, the test product (disinfectant being tested) is added directly to the test microorganisms in a suspension. Sterile neutralizer is added immediately after the claimed contact time to stop the effects of the disinfectant and a sample of the mixture is poured into a pour plate and incubated.

What is en13704?

EN 13704:2018 is a phase 2 step 1 suspension test for disinfectants intended for use in the food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas. The test evaluates the efficacy of the product against bacterial and fungal spores.

Does Dettol meet BS EN 1276?

What are suspension tests?

What is Chick Martin test?

An obsolete method for determining the in vitro efficacy of a disinfectant. Method. A standardised quantity of Salmonella typhi is added to sterilised faeces, and various dilutions of the disinfectant are compared with the efficacy of phenol as a disinfectant, yielding the phenol coefficient.

Is Dettol BS EN approved?

It is important to note that Dettol does not meet British Standards as it is marketed as a domestic not a commercial cleaner. Next time you are looking at cleaning products check the label to ensure they meet British Standards.

What diluted solution should be used to clean tables?

How do you evaluate suspension?

Prepared suspension were evaluated by studying different parameters like pH, sedimentation volume, redispersibility, Flow rate (F), viscosity, degree of flocculation, effect of temperature etc.

What is compliance in suspension?

Compliance steer is a metric to measure the amount of self steer generated by a suspension system when it is subject to a cornering (lateral) load at the contact patch. Compliance steer is measured as degrees of toe change per Kilo-Newton of force at the contact patch, Deg/kN.

What is Riddle Walker test?

A test to determine the Germicidal value of a given substance. In the year 1903 Rideal and Walker developed a test to determine the Germicidal value or measure the bactericidal activity of disinfecting agents and this process was later modified and accepted by the British Standards Institution.

What is Kelsey Sykes test?

Kelsey-Sykes test is a triple challenge test, designed to determine concentrations of disinfectant that will be effective in clean and dirty conditions. The disinfectant is challenged by three successive additions of a bacterial suspension during the course of the test.
