EN 14476:2019-10 – Quantitative Virucidal Suspension Test for Disinfectant
Test Details:
- Test Organism: Poliovirus (Fridrich Loeffler Institut (RVB-1260))
- Test Specimen: Disinfectant STREAM (2023:2380)
- Test Inoculum: 1 part of test virus into 9 parts of test mixture (8 parts test specimen + 1 part of interfering substance)
- Contact Time: 30 min
- Test Temperature: 15°C ± 1°C
Outline of Test Method
- 1 part of test virus (Poliovirus) was inoculated separately into 9 parts of control (hard water + interfering substance) specimen and 9 parts of test (Disinfectant + interfering substance).
- The above mixture was pulse vortexed and incubated at a specified temperature (15°C ± 1°C) for 30 min.
- After the specified contact time (30 min), 0.5 ml of the mixture was added to 4.5 ml of ice-cold medium for neutralization of disinfectant.
- The neutralized suspension was subjected to serial dilution (1:10) using maintenance medium.
- Virus recovery from the control and test sample was done by adding the serially diluted sample to cells in a 96-well plate for TCID50 determination.
Antiviral Activity (R) Calculation
Formula:
R = a - b
Where:
- R = Log reduction
- a = Log TCID50 of Virus control titration
- b = Log TCID50 of Test sample virus titration
Percent Reduction Calculation
Formula:
Percent Reduction = 100 * (1 – 10^R)
