For your disinfectant or sanitizer efficacy studies, we can also perform simulation
studies, hard surface testing, and testing under nominal conditions/procedures. CD
Formulation has characterization of the disinfectant itself, and testing requirements
vary by category, while disinfection products are related to consumer health and
safety. Tests include active ingredient content determination, stability testing, pH
determination, heavy gold measurement and microbial kill testing. Microbial kill tests
may also include in vitro testing: time termination studies or suspension tests,
specimen or carrier testing, environmental monitoring and in situ testing.
When designing your disinfectant efficacy verification or validation solution, our
experts will consider the following factors.
1. Surfaces present in critical areas, including different conditions or types of the
same material.
