45、esidual activity is assessed atany selected time after the last treatment application, forexample, 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours, and so forth, by measuringthe survival of marker bacteria applied under occlusion to thetreated skin sites after pre-selected exposure times, for ex-ample, 30 minutes, two ho
46、urs, or five hours depending on studyobjectives. The following is an example of a procedure forassessing residual activity 24 h after the last treatment usingexposure times of 30 min,2hand5h.10.2.1 Approximately 24 h after the final treatment appli-cation, three (3) evenly spaced circular test sites
47、 are markedalong the midsection of the volar aspect of each forearm,avoiding the area on the wrist and elbow crease. The lower siteis near the wrist and the upper site is near the elbow. Mark thesites by pressing a 3.0 cm inside diameter glass cylinder, inkedwith a stamp pad, against the skin.10.2.2
48、 Using a micro pipettor (section 7.5), inoculate thecenter of each circular site with 10 L of the bacterial cultureto obtain 106to 107colony forming units (CFUs) of S. aureus.A sterile, disposable, inoculating loop is used to evenly spreadthe inoculum within the center of the test site while remaini
49、ng4 to 5 mm from the marked edge. The culture is prepared asdescribed in section 10.5.10.2.3 Each inoculated site is immediately occluded bycovering it with an occlusive chamber (section 7.8) andsecured to the skin with an adhesive dressing (section 7.9).10.3 Harvesting of the Surviving OrganismsAll inocu-lated sites are sampled for surviving organisms. One (1) testsite on each arm is harvested at each of the three (3) timeperiods 30 6 5min,2h6 5 min, and 5 h 6 5 min afterinoculation. The randomization will indicate the time periodf
