40、Because certain antimicrobials (for example, alcohol and iodine) are sensitive to organic material and may have activity reduced by even theslightest organic load, washed inoculum suspensions, whether established initially in broth or from solid media, may be used.NOTE 2Antimicrobials sensitive to o

41、rganic material (for example, alcohol and iodine) may have reduced activity by even the slightest organic loadand therefore thoroughly washed inoculum suspensions only, whether grown initially in broth or from solid media, should be used.8.3.5 The inoculum suspension should be prepared to achieve a
