Germicidal and Detergent Sanitizing Action of Disinfectants Test

Summary of Germicidal and Detergent Sanitizing Action of Disinfectants Test

The AOAC germicidal and detergent sanitizing action of disinfectants test is an EPA-specified method for the registration and labeling requirements of antimicrobials, which can be used to verify the efficacy claims for certain food-contact surface disinfectants. The test method considers the different conditions of the test chemicals, including dilution, contact time, and neutralizers. The AOAC germicidal and detergent sanitizing action of disinfectants test is particularly suitable for dilutable sanitizers that do not contain halogens (chlorine, bromine), and the minimum starting concentration recommended for consumers is 2-4 times the minimum concentration determined in the test method. This method can also determine the maximum water hardness for claimed concentrations.

Services We Provide

The experimental steps provided by Creative BioMart Microbe are as follows: inoculate the test organisms into the product and the control group in equal amounts, contact for a short time, dilute and neutralize the samples, and cultivate them in a plate to determine the number of surviving organisms. The product must be proven to reduce 99.999% of both the Gram-positive and Gram-negative test microorganisms to be considered an effective disinfectant. Typical test organisms include Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, we can also test additional food-borne pathogens of interest according to customer requirements.

Advantages of the AOAC Germicidal and Detergent Sanitizing Action of Disinfectants Test

• This method is highly repeatable.
• This method can be used as an important assessment of disinfection performance in the presence of excess liquids, for example, it may be used for "bulk-type" food contact sanitizing rinses.

Disadvantages of the AOAC Germicidal and Detergent Sanitizing Action of Disinfectants Test

• This method is somewhat different from "real life" hard surface sanitization (trigger sprays, aerosols, etc.).
• This method somewhat relies on the operator, and it is difficult to achieve standardization.
