Antimicrobial Testing

Testing available for antimicrobial agents are comprised of either a relatively quick qualitative test to detect bacterio-static activity on textile materials, or more time-intense quantitative methods to evaluate the degree of antibacterial activity (bactericidal activity).

Qualitative Tests:

• Kirby-Bauer Test
• Parallel Streak Method AATCC 147

 

Quantitative Tests:

• Assessment of Antibacterial Finishes on Textile Materials AATCC 100
• Standard Test Method for Determining the Antimicrobial Activity of immobilized Antimicrobial Agents Under Dynamic Contact Conditions ASTM E 2149
