This dynamic shake flasktest was developed for routine quality control and screeningtests in order to overcome difficulties in using classicalantimicrobial test methods to evaluate substrate-bound antimi-crobials. These difficu

Summary of Test Method3.1 The antimicrobial activity of a substrate-bound, non-leaching antimicrobial agent is dependent upon direct contactof microbes with the acti

10、ve chemical agent. This test deter-mines the antimicrobial activity of a treated specimen byshaking samples of surface-bound materials in a concentratedbacterial suspension for a one hour contact time. The suspen-sion is serially diluted both before and after contact andcultured. The number of viabl

11、e organisms from the suspensionis determined and the percent reduction (or log10reduction) iscalculated by comparing retrievals from appropriate controls.4. Significance and Use4.1 Immobilized, as chemically bonded, antimicrobialagents are not free to diffuse into their environment undernormal condi

12、tions of use. Textile test methods, such asAATCC 147-2004, that are directly dependent on the readyleachability of the antimicrobial agent from the treated fabricare inappropriate for evaluating immobilized antimicrobialagents. This test method ensures good contact between thebacteria and the treate

13、d fiber, fabric, or other substrate, byconstant agitation of the test specimen in a challenge suspen-sion during the test period.4.2 The metabolic state of the challenge species can directlyaffect measurements of the effectiveness of particular antimi-crobial agents or concentrations of agents. The

14、susceptibility ofthe species to particular biocides could be altered depending onits life stage (cycle). One-hour contact time in a buffer solutionallows for metabolic stasis in the population. This test methodstandardizes both the growth conditions of the challengespecies and substrate contact time

With the use of wetting-age

18、nt surfactants, falsenegatives observed when comparing hydrophobic and hydro-philic substrates can be reduced.4.4 This test method is not intended for directly comparingthe activities of leaching and non-leaching antimicrobialagents. In liquid environments, leaching biocides may releasethe active in

19、gredient at differential rates. Furthermore, residualantimicrobial activity of leaching biocides may be present inserial dilution and may exert additional activity after desiredcontact time, unless adequately sequestered at end of test.Controls for both of these factors are not included in this test

20、method; therefore, screening protocols are introduced to iden-tify the presence of leaching biocides.4.5 The test is suitable for evaluating stressed or modifiedspecimens, when accompanied by adequate controls.NOTE 1Stresses may include laundry, wear and abrasion, radiationand steam sterilization, U

Test Specimen10.1 Preparation of Test Specimen:10.1.1 Fabric and PaperSamples are selected on weightbasis and weighed to 1.0 6 0.1 g.10.1.2 Powder and Granular Materia

36、lWeigh to 1.0 60.1 g. The material must settle after shaking so that nospecimen interferes with the retrieval and counting techniques.10.1.3 Other Solids (Surface Treatment)Reduce the solidin size to fit into the flask or use a sterile wide-mouth bottle.Use a specimen that gives 4 in.2(25.8 cm2) of

37、treated surfacearea. Specimen may also be selected on weight basis, 60.1 g,at the discretion of the investigator. Care must be exercisedduring shaking not to break the flask or bottle. The untreatedspecimen of the solid must not absorb the solution. If appro-priate to the nature of the test specimen

38、, it can be mounted asa seal for the test container so that only the treated surface is indirect contact with the inoculum.NOTE 3Solids anticipated in this part of the method are plastics, glassbeads or chips, ceramics, metal chips, or similar hard surfaces.11. Procedure for Determining Antimicrobia

39、l Activity11.1 Prepare the specimen to be tested as described inSection 10. One treated piece of each specimen is required.One untreated piece of each specimen of identical compositionis highly recommended for each series of specimen tested.11.2 Prepare one sterile 250 mL screw-cap Erlenmeyer flaskf

40、or each treated and untreated specimen, and one “inoculumonly” sample for the series being run. Add 50 6 0.5 mL ofworking dilution of bacterial inoculum prepared in 9.2 to eachflask.11.3 Determine bacterial concentration of solution at the “0”time by performing serial dilutions and standard plate co

41、unttechniques from the “inoculum only” sample flask11.4 Place the test and control specimen in their individualflasks. No series of test flasks should be large enough to requiremore than 5 min, post-contact, between the first and last serialdilution.11.5 Place the series of flasks on the wrist-actio

42、n shaker.Shake at maximum stroke for 1 h 6 5 min. Immediately serialdilute and plate each sample out in triplicate, as was done forthe “0” contact time subgroup (11.3).NOTE 4Residual bacterial retention in/on specimen could be testedusing appropriate retrieval techniques such as agar imprint tests o

43、r bufferextraction and plate count.NOTE 5Filter solutions in which samples have degraded duringshaking. Whatman filter paper Type 1 has been found to be appropriate forthis step. Contents of the “inoculum only” flask must be treated in thesame manner.11.6 Allow all the Petri dishes from both subsets

44、 to incubatefor at 35 6 2C for 24 h.11.7 Count the colonies in Petri dish. Record the values,average the triplicate Petri dish numbers and convert theaverage to colony-forming units per millilitre (CFU/mL).NOTE 6The presence of the original test organism may be confirmedby Gram stains and colony mor
