24、modification. IntroductionContact lens care products (CLCP) are used with contact lenses. These products rinse, clean, disinfect, store, wet, aid the comfort of, and condition contact lenses. Some products have one function, while others are multifunctional.Usually, products manufactured for use wit
25、h hydrogel lenses may be used with rigid gas-permeable (RGP) or poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) lenses, but products specifically used for RGP or PMMA contact lenses are not usually suitable for hydrogel lenses.Most CLCPs are manufactured as solutions and are commonly packaged and sold in multidos
26、e containers. Dry products are sold as tablets or granules and shall be dissolved in a suitable solvent immediately prior to use.If the contact lens care product solution does not have any antimicrobial activity itself, an antimicrobial preservative can be added to the product to inhibit the growth
27、of microorganisms that might be introduced from repeated dispensing during use and subsequent storage. All antimicrobial agents have the potential for toxicity to the user. For maximum protection to the user, the concentration of the preservative should be such that it provides adequate preservative
28、 activity with minimum toxicity.There are differences between ophthalmic preparations and contact lens care products and some of these differences are significant in relation to preservative efficacy testing. Typically, ophthalmic preparations are packaged in small-volume containers and are used for
29、 short periods on compromised eyes. Contact lens care products are distributed in larger volume containers and are used with contact lenses on a long term basis on healthy eyes. The potential risks for contact lens care products are the solution/lens interaction causing ocular irritation and the ris
30、ks of the solution contamination by the repeated (daily) use of the product.Thus, when contact lens care products are formulated, the risk of adverse patient reaction due to the lens and/or solution interaction has to be weighed against the benefits of safety derived from the maintenance of the anti
31、microbial activity of the solution.This International Standard gives the test procedure and performance criteria for preservative efficacy. It has been adapted from Pharmacopoeias which give a time limitation in their test procedure of 28 d. The informative annexes give four examples of preservative
32、 efficacy test procedures developed by contact lens care product manufacturers to show preservative efficacy for products whose discard dates are over 28 d.DIN EN ISO 14730:2015-02 EN ISO 14730:2014 (E) 4 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a procedure to be used in evaluating the antimicro
33、bial preservative activity of all preserved multidose contact lens care products, and provides guidance on methods for determination of discard date as informative annexes.This test is applicable to products for up to a 28-day discard date.The test is not applicable to sterile products packaged in u
34、nit doses for single use or multidose containers designed with physical barriers to microbial contamination (e.g. aerosol containers).NOTE 1 Principles of the test can be used to extend discard dating beyond 28 d. See Annexes B, C, D and E.NOTE 2 Use of multiple or mixed microbial challenges and/or
35、inclusion of contact lenses or other organic load can influence the apparent antimicrobial activity of a particular product. The evaluation of these variables together with testing against a larger panel of microorganisms and testing of samples from partially used containers can be of value in devel
36、oping a contact lens care product, but are excluded from the scope of this International Standard.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

38、nd recommendations for labelling specifications3 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 18369-1 apply.4 Principle4.1 The test consists of challenging the preparation with a specified inoculum of suitable microorganisms at the commencement of th
39、e test and then rechallenging at day 14. The inoculated preparations are stored at a specified temperature. Samples are withdrawn from the inoculated preparations at specified time intervals and are cultured for determination of viable organisms. The capability of the product to prevent re-growth is
40、 confirmed by counting of viable organisms over longer time periods.4.2 The size of the microbial challenge chosen in this test is not intended to be representative of the likely challenge in practice, but to provide countable numbers from which estimation of the rate and extent of viability loss ca
41、n be determined.DIN EN ISO 14730:2015-02 EN ISO 14730:2014 (E) 5 4.3 The antimicrobial preservative properties of the product are adequate if, in the conditions of the test, there is significant reduction of bacteria and no increase in yeasts and moulds in the inoculated preparation after the times
42、and at the temperatures specified. The performance criteria are given in 5.6.4.4 Appropriate measures shall be taken to inactivate or remove residual antimicrobial agents during culturing and counting of survivors. The effectiveness of these measures shall be validated.5 Test methods5.1 Materials an
