16、16 “Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2009, and conflicting national standards shall be withdr
17、awn at the latest by May 2009. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document has been prepared under a mandate given t
18、o CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EC Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive 93/42/EEC, see informative annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document. Other methods to evaluate the efficacy of chemical dis
19、infectants and antiseptics for different applications in the medical field are in preparation. A collaborative trial will be undertaken to provide a precision annex to this standard. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries ar
20、e bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Swed
21、en, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. BS EN 14563:2008EN 14563:2008 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard specifies a carrier test for establishing whether a chemical disinfectant for use on instruments (surgical instruments, anaesthesia material, endoscopes etc.) has a mycobactericidal or tub
22、erculocidal activity in the area described in the scope. The laboratory test closely simulates practical conditions of application including pre-drying mycobacteria on a carrier, contact time, temperature, test organisms and interfering substances, i.e. conditions which may influence the action of c
23、hemical disinfectants in practical situations. The obligatory conditions are intended to cover general purposes and to allow reference between laboratories and product types. Each utilization concentration of the chemical disinfectant found by this test corresponds to defined experimental conditions
24、. However, for some applications the recommendations of use of a product may differ and therefore additional test conditions need to be used. BS EN 14563:2008EN 14563:2008 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a test method and the minimum requirements for mycobactericidal or tuberculocidal
25、 activity of chemical disinfectant products that form a homogeneous, physically stable preparation when diluted with hard water, or in the case of ready-to-use products with water. This European Standard applies to products that are used in the medical area for disinfecting instruments by immersion
26、even if they are not covered by the EEC/93/42 Directive on Medical Devices. This European Standard applies to areas and situations where disinfection is medically indicated. Such indications occur in patient care, for example: in hospitals, in community medical facilities and in dental institutions;
27、 in clinics of schools, kindergartens and nursing homes; and may occur in the workplace and in the home. It may also include services such as laundries and kitchens supplying products directly for the patients. EN 14885 specifies in detail the relationship of the various tests to one another and to
28、“use recommendations“. NOTE This method corresponds to a phase 2, step 2 test. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the ref
29、erenced document (including any amendments) applies.

30、an Standards for chemical disinfectants and antiseptics 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard, the terms and definitions given in EN 14885 apply. 4 Requirements The product, when tested in accordance with Clause 5 under simulated clean conditions (0,3 g/l bovine albumin
31、solution) or simulated dirty conditions (3,0 g/l bovine albumin solution, plus 3,0 ml/l washed sheep erythrocytes) according to its practical applications and under the obligatory test conditions, (one or two selected test organisms, 20 C, 60 min), shall demonstrate at least a decimal log (lg)reduct
32、ion in counts of 4. The mycobactericidal activity shall be evaluated using the following two test organisms: Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium terrae. The tuberculocidal activity shall be evaluated using the following test organism: Mycobacterium terrae. BS EN 14563:2008EN 14563:2008 (E) 6 Where
33、 indicated, additional specific mycobactericidal or tuberculocidal activity shall be determined applying other contact times, temperatures and interfering substances in accordance with 5.5.1.1, in order to take into account intended specific use conditions. NOTE For these additional conditions, the
34、concentration defined as a result can be lower than the one obtained under the obligatory test conditions. 5 Test method 5.1 Principle 5.1.1 A test suspension of mycobacteria in a solution of interfering substances is spread on a glass carrier. After drying the carrier is immersed into a sample of t
35、he product as delivered and/or diluted with hard water (for ready to use products: water). The carrier is maintained at 20 C 1 C for 60 min 10 s (obligatory test conditions). At the end of this contact time, the carrier is transferred into a neutralizer containing glass beads. The mycobacteria are t
36、o be severed from the surface by shaking. The numbers of surviving mycobacteria in each sample are determined and the reduction is calculated. 5.1.2 The test is performed using Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium terrae or only Mycobacterium terrae as test organisms (obligatory test conditions). 5
37、.1.3 Additional and optional contact times and temperatures are specified. Additional interfering substances may be used. 5.2 Materials and reagents 5.2.1 Test organisms The mycobactericidal activity shall be evaluated using the following two test-organisms1): Mycobacterium avium ATCC 15769 Mycobact
38、erium terrae ATCC 15755 The tuberculocidal activity shall be evaluated using only Mycobacterium terrae. NOTE See Annex A for strain reference in some other culture collections. 5.2.2 Culture media and reagents 5.2.2.1 General All weights of chemical substances given in this European Standard refer t
39、o the anhydrous salts. Hydrated forms may be used as an alternative, but the weights required shall be adjusted to allow for consequent molecular weight differences. The reagents shall be of analytical grade and/or appropriate for microbiological purposes. They shall be free from substances that are
40、 toxic or inhibitory to the test organisms. 1) The ATCC numbers are the collection numbers of strains supplied by the American Type Culture Collections (ATCC). This information is given for the convenience of users of this European Standard and does not constitute an endorsement by CEN of the produc
