摘要：

A surface test method for disinfectants currently under development as a standard European test method is described. The test involves determining the number of viable organisms recoverable from a contaminated stainless steel surface before and after application of disinfectant. Evaluation of a range of disinfectant agents and products currently used in the UK indicated that products at recommended use concentrations produced log reductions in viable count ranging from < 1.0 to > 6.4 (i.e. no detectable survivors) after a 5 min contact period against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterococcus faecium and Candida albicans. Increased activity was observed by increasing the disinfectant contact time to 30 min. Addition of 3% w/v albumin to the test suspension used to inoculate surfaces caused a substantial reduction in activity.
