This practice allows for impact of fuel/water partitioning andtime, on the antimicrobial agent, as well as the effect of continual rechallenge.4.1.2 At each sampling time interval, treated and untreated aliquots are checked

24、 for the treated population survival.Microbiological testing is coupled with gross observations of each system for biofilm formation and interfacial growth.4.1.3 The size of the test system, total volume of fluid, fuel to bottom-water ratio and test duration may vary depending on thespecific objecti

28、s, and climatology, are variables that canbe included in specific tests using this protocol.5.3 This practice addresses product performance issues only. RegulatoryAgencies restrict and control the use of both pesticides(in the U.S.: 40 CFR 152) and fuel additives (40 CFR 79). Regardless of performan
