Antimicrobial Test / Antimicrobial Testing Services
Antifungal Activity - Antimicrobial Assessment on Textile Materials
The two purposes of this antimicrobial test method (AATCC 30) are to determine the susceptibility of the textile materials to mildew and rot and to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of fungicides on textile materials. Accugen Laboratories provides quality textile testing services according to the standardized antimicrobial textile testing procedures.
Assessment of Antimicrobial Finishes on Textile Materials
This antimicrobial test is a quantitative method (AATCC 100) in which assessment of antibacterial finishes on textile materials (fabric finsihes, etc.) is determined by the degree of antibacterial activity intended in the use of such materials. Accugen's highly educated professionals are thoroughly trained and well versed in microbiological antimicrobial testing procedures for textile testing including the AATCC 100 test method.
Antibacterial Assessment of Textile Materials: Parallel Streak Method - Antimicrobial Testing
The AATCC Test Method 147 is a qualitative antimicrobial test used to detect baceteriostatic activity on textile materials. This antimicrobial testing method is useful for obtaining a rough estimate of activity by the size of the zone of inhibition and the narrowing of the streaks caused by the presence of the antimicrobial agent permitting an estimate of the residual antimicrobial activity after multiple washings. Call Accugen Labs, Inc. today to receive an estimate for antimicrobial textile testing using the AATCC 147 test method and the various other textile testing services we provide. (800) 282-7102
New Carpet Materials - Antimicrobial Testing
This antimicrobial testing method (AATCC 174) is designed to determine the antimicrobial activity of new carpet materials.
-
This antimicrobial test determines qualitative antibacterial activity of carpet against Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
-
This antimicrobial test determines quantitative antibacterial activity of carpet against Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae.
-
This antimicrobial test determines quantitative antifungal activity of carpet when challenged with Aspergillus niger. This antimicrobial testing method may also be used to evaluate the effect of a cleaning process on the antimicrobial resistance of carpets.

Antimicrobial testing of antimicrobial activity and efficacy for antimicrobial products
Standard Antimicrobial Test Method (ASTM C 1338) for Determining Fungi Resistance of Insulation Materials and Facings
This antimicrobial test method (ASTM C1338) covers the determination of the ability of new insulation materials and their facings to support fungal growth.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method (ASTM D 932) for Iron Bacteria in Water and Water-formed deposits.
In this antimicrobial test, the test method covers the determination of iron bacteria by examination under the microscope.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Methods (ASTM D 2020) for Mildew (fungus) Resistance of Paper and Paperboard
These antimicrobial testing methods cover the qualitative determination of mildew (fungus) resistance of paper and paperboard, particularly those tyopes which have been given a fungus resistant treatment.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method (ASTM D 3273) for Resistance to mold on the surface of interior coatings in an environmental chamber
This antimicrobial testing method (ASTM D3273) describes a small environmental chamber and the conditions of operation to evaluate reproducibly in a four (4) week period, the relative resistance of paint films to surface mold, fungi, mildew growth in a severe interior environment.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method for Ability of Adhesive Films to Support or Resist the Growth of Fungi
These antimicrobial testing methods (ASTM D 4300) test the ability of adhesive films to inhibit or support the growth of selected fungal species growing on agar plates by providing means of testing the films on two agar substrates, one of which promotes microbial growth, while the other does not.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method (ASTM D 5590) for Determining the Resistance of Paint Films and related coatings to Fungal Defacement by Accelerated (4) Four-Week Agar Plate Assay: Potato Dextrose or Malt Agar and Nutrient-Salts Agar
This antimicrobial test covers an accelerated method for determining the relative resistance of two or more paints or coating films to fungal growth.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method (ASTM E 1153) for Efficacy of Sanitizers Recommended for Inanimate Non-Food contact Surfaces
- This antimicrobial test method is used to evalate the antimicrobial efficacy of sanitizers on precleaned inanimate, nonporous, non-food contact surfaces.
- Additionally, this antimicrobial testing method may be used to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of one-step cleaner / sanitizer formulations recommended for use on lightly soiled, inanimate, nonporous, non-food contact surfaces.
Standard Antimicrobial Test Method (ASTM E 2149) for Determining the Antimicrobial Activity of Immobilized Antimicrobial Agents Under Dynamic Contact Conditons
The antimicrobial testing method (ASTM E2149) is designed to evaluate the resistance of non-leaching antimicrobial treated specimens to the growth of microbes under dynamic contact conditions.
Standard Antimicrobial Testing Method (ASTM E 2180) for Determining the Activity of Incorporated Antimicrobial Agents in Polymeric or Hydrophobic Materials
This antimicrobial test method (ASTM E2180) is designed to evaluate (quantitatively) the antimicrobial effectiveness of agents incorporated or bound into or onto mainly flat (two dimensional) hydrophobic or polymeric surfaces. The antimicrobial testing method, ASTM E 2180, focuses primarily on assessing antibacterial activity; however, other microorganisms such as yeast and fungal conidia may be tested using this antimicrobial test method.

USP <51> - Antimicrobial Efficacy Test
Antimicrobial preservatives are added in the products to protect them from microbial contamination. Antimicrobial efficacy test evaluates the effectiveness of an antimicrobial preservative.
Test method (USP <1227>) to Evaluate Method to Neutralize the Antimicrobial Properties of a Product
This antimicrobial testing method is used to evaluate the methods to neutralize the antimicobial properties of a product prior to estimating the number of viable microorganisms. The purpose of the antimicrobial test is to ensure the validity of the test results. For Antimicrobial effectiveness test and other microbial recovery tests call Accugen at 800-282-7102
This is the disc diffusion method (ZOI, Kirby Bauer)
Used to demonstrate activity / potency of antimicrobials or antibiotics by measuring the zone of inhibition against specified microorganisms. The test is applicable for materials treated with an antimicrobial agent that leaches out of the material.
