DIN EN 15457:2014-11 EN 15457:2014 (E) 4 Introduction This document identifies criteria to assess efficacy of film preservatives in a coating against fungi. The results of the method allow evaluation of an activ

22、e substance with regard to its inclusion in Annex I of the Biocidal Products Directive 98/8/EC (Directive 98/8/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 1998 concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market BPD) or in the list of the Biocidal Product Regulation (BPR, R

23、egulation (EU) 528/2012). The characteristics of the biocide treated coating material should conform to national regulations with regard to health, safety and the environment. DIN EN 15457:2014-11 EN 15457:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a laboratory test method for determining t

24、he biocidal/biostatic efficacy of single active substances or combinations thereof used in film preservatives in a coating against fungal growth. This standard does not apply to coatings not susceptible to fungal growth. The test method comprises only active substances for film preservation, not the

25、 protection of the substrate itself, e.g. wood, which is dealt with in another standard. The test method is applicable for active substances used for wood and masonry coatings. It is not applicable to marine coatings. Safety, health and environmental aspects are not in the scope of this standard. De

26、termination of the performance of film preservatives in coatings by applying ageing procedures is not within the scope of this standard. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

27、ed references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

29、purposes of this document, the following term and definition applies. 3.1 active substance substance or micro-organism that has an action on or against harmful organisms SOURCE: Biocidal Product Regulation (BPR, Regulation (EU) 528/2012), Article 3.1 (c), modified the article “a“ between “or“ and “m

30、icro-organism“ was deleted 4 Principle To determine the fungicidal efficacy of film preservatives in a coating, the coating material is applied to a substrate conditioned according to EN 23270, placed onto an agar surface, inoculated with a standard fungal spore suspension and incubated. Conclusions

31、 can be drawn to the fungicidal efficacy of the film preservatives in a coating from the intensity of the fungal growth on the surface of the specimen after incubation. The method described here is a semiquantitative, comparative method between coatings, with and without film preservatives. DIN EN 1

39、 representative sample of the coating material or of the coating system for testing in accordance with EN ISO 1513. 7.2 Preparation of test samples (see Annex A) Coat a strip of filter paper without biocidal effect with the coating material to be tested. The application rate shall be that recommende

40、d by the coating manufacturer for normal use. 7.3 Conditioning of the test samples Condition the test sample in a horizontal position for at least 5 days at (23 2) C and (50 5) % relative humidity, in accordance with EN 23270. NOTE The conditioning time might vary according to the coating material a

41、nd end use corresponding to information given by the manufacturer. 7.4 Preparation and number of specimens After conditioning, three specimens each with a diameter of 55 mm shall be prepared from the test samples. The specimens shall be sealed in a plastics bag and sterilized using gamma radiation o

42、f 10 kGy. Other methods of sterilization may be agreed between the parties. For each test series three specimens coated with coating material containing the film preservative, three specimens coated with the same coating material without film preservative and three specimens of the uncoated substrat

43、e shall be tested. 2)IMI = CABI = Bioscience Genetic Resource Collection, Egham, UK. DIN EN 15457:2014-11 EN 15457:2014 (E) 8 8 Procedure 8.1 Preparation of the Petri dishes with the culture medium A malt (3 %)-agar(1,5 %)-medium shall be sterilized in the autoclave. After cooling the medium to 55 C

44、 to 60 C, 20 ml shall be poured into each sterile Petri dish under aseptic conditions. 8.2 Preparation of stock cultures and sub-cultures Sub-cultures shall be obtained by inoculating spore material from a stock culture to freshly prepared agar slope culture media and shall be used for preparing the

45、 spore suspension. From these sub-cultures further sub-cultures can be derived in sufficient number. After the inoculation the sub-cultures shall be incubated at (24 2) C until good sporulation has been achieved. This might require 3 days to 7 days, depending on the fungal species used for testing.

46、The sub-cultures can be stored satisfactorily at 3 C to 7 C for a period of 3 months. 8.3 Preparation of the spore suspension For preparing the spore suspension a well-sporulating sub-culture is used. To this sub-culture 5 ml of sterile deionized water should be added (if required also add a surfact

47、ant e.g. 0,1 % N-Methyltaurine). The spores shall be carefully washed down from the agar slope, using a platinum loop as an aid, filtered through a sterile glass funnel with cotton wool and collected in a sterile glass bottle. After counting the spore concentration by using a commercially available

48、counting chamber and diluting each with sterile water to 106to 107spores/ml all spore suspensions intended for testing shall be mixed in equal parts. 8.4 Inoculation and incubation (see Annex A) In addition to the coated and uncoated specimens (see 7.4) a further three Petri dishes containing the nutritive agar medium only shall be inoculated. The sterilized specimens shall be placed centrally onto the surface of the culture media using sterile tweezers. The coated surface of the specimen shall be face up and
