Bacterial Disinfectant Efficacy Using Flow Cytometry
Flow cytometry is a rapid method to quantitate live and dead bacteria in a sample.1-4 It can be used to measure the efficacy of antimicrobial compounds by exposing organisms to the disinfectant and subsequently staining with permeant and impermeant DNA dyes. Test organism viability, measured using a 30-minute flow cytometry assay, showed comparable sensitivity with a standard 48-hour plate coun...
متن کاملRuggedness and reproducibility of the MBEC biofilm disinfectant efficacy test.
The MBEC™ Physiology & Genetics Assay recently became the first approved ASTM standardized biofilm disinfectant efficacy test method. This report summarizes the results of the standardization process using Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms. Initial ruggedness testing of the MBEC method suggests that the assay is rugged (i.e., insensitive) to small changes to the protocol with respect to 4 factors...
متن کاملVirucidal efficacy of disinfectant actives against feline calicivirus, a surrogate for norovirus, in a short contact time.
BACKGROUND Among other measures, handwashing and targeted disinfection are important in preventing and controlling norovirus outbreaks. Presently, there are a limited number of disinfectants effective against norovirus. There is a need to develop alternatives to bleach that are effective against norovirus, and, in particular, fast-acting disinfectants are desired. The aim of this study was to d...
متن کاملEfficacy and acceptability of chlorine dioxide water disinfectant.
samples were collected in sterile screw capped containers and processed within 30 minutes after the collection. Sugarcane juice was diluted 10-folds in phosphate buffered saline (pH 7.3) and bacterial count was determined by surface plating on blood agar and MacConkey agar plates. 1 For the isolation of Salmonella spp. and Shigella spp, sugarcane juice (50 mL) was inoculated into equal volumes ...

or uncombined, is beneficial in cholera. In the case under notice the black oxide of manganese was not used, therefore the gas obtained, I should have mentioned, was hydrochloric acid and not chlorine. Had black oxide of manganese been available at the time, it would have been employed, for the element in an uncombined form would be more potent than in a combined form. The carbonate of soda was...
