Antimicrobial Efficacy Testing
Antimicrobial efficacy testing evaluates a product or treated material's ability to inhibit, reduce or eliminate microorganisms under defined test conditions.
Depending on the product, material, intended application and performance claim, testing may evaluate activity against:
- Bacteria
- Fungi
- Yeast
- Mold
- Other specified microorganisms
Testing can be performed using recognized industry methods or a customized protocol developed for a specific product or research objective.
