EN 13624:2003 Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics - Quantitative suspension test for the evaluation of fungicidal activity of chemical disinfectants for instruments used in the medical area - Test method and requirements (phase 2, step 1)
This European Standard specifies a test method andThe minimum requirements for fungicidal or yeasticidalactivity of chemical disinfectant products that form a homogeneous, physically stable preparation when dilutedwith hard water or一inThe case of ready-to-use products一with water. Products can only be tested at aconcentration of 80%or less as some dilution is always produced by addingThe test organisms andinterfering substance.This European Standard applies to products that are used inThe medical area for disinfecting instruments byimmersion一even ifThey are not covered byThe EEC/93/42 Directive on Medical Devices.This European Standard applies to areas and situations where disinfection is medically indicated. Suchindications occur in patient care, for example:in hospitals, in community medical facilities and in dental institutions;in clinics of schools, of kindergartens and of nursing homes;and may occur inThe workplace and inThe home. It may also include services such as laundries and kitchenssupplying products directly forThe patients.NOTE 1 The method described is intended to determineThe activity of commercial formulations or active substancesunderThe conditions in whichThey are used.NO丁E2This method corresponds to a phase 2 step 1 test (see annex E)
