What is Antibacterial Testing ?

Antibacterial testing is a crucial requirement for industries betrothed in the development of antibacterial products. Basically, microbiological assessment is helpful to validate products for their antimicrobial efficacy, shelf life, and presence of potential contamination factors.

Antimicrobial testing is also implied to monitor the microbiological quality of non – sterile products.

With an extensive experience in executing microbiological testing, MIS offers an array of services towards varied industries globally such as textiles, disinfectants, coatings, and cosmetics. Our antibacterial testing services are tailored to our client’s individual needs.

We execute and perform antibacterial testing services for following industries –

Antibacterial Efficacy Test Methods for Textiles

The ASTM E2149 test method quantifies and evaluates the efficacy of a sample treated with a non-leaching antimicrobial agent through the shaking in of an organism suspension.
The AATCC 100 is a quantitative test method used to determine the antibacterial activity of a textile or porous material, such as paper filter media and tissues. This proves to be particularly useful in the sports, commercial, and medical fields.
The Japanese Industrial Standard [JIS] L 1902 test has been developed to test the antimicrobial activity of various fabrics. The JIS L 1902 test method has been embraced as an International Standards Organization (ISO) method, ISO 20743, with a few minor changes.
ISO 20743 is a ‘quantitative test’ used to determine the antibacterial activity of all antibacterial textile products. It is designed to test the ability of fabrics that have been treated with antimicrobial agents to prevent microbial growth and to kill microorganisms.
AATCC 147, also known as Parallel Streak Method is a qualitative test method specifying the bacteriostatic activity of diffusible antimicrobial agents on textile materials.
AATCC 174 has been developed by American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (AATCC) to determine the antimicrobial activity of new carpet materials.
