ASTM E1052 Standard Practice for Evaluating Antiviral Activity of Microbicides in Suspension

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM E1052 standard. The ASTM E1052 standard aims to demonstrate the virucidal activity of test substances with suspended viruses.

ASTM E1052 Standard Practice for Evaluating Antiviral Activity of Microbicides in Suspension

This laboratory test method is a suspension test used to evaluate the effectiveness of antimicrobial solutions against certain viruses. This test method can be used with most viruses and is designed for cell culture host systems.

This test method should only be performed by persons trained in microbiological or virological techniques.

It is the responsibility of the investigator to determine if Good Laboratory Practices regulations (GLPs) are required and to follow as appropriate (40 CFR, Part 160 for EPA applications and 21 CFR, Part 58 for FDA applications).

Several active ingredient concentrations can be evaluated efficiently and quickly over various contact times in one study. The test method tends to be more reproducible than most hard surface carrier methods.

Frozen stock test virus is thawed and diluted to a titer of approximately 0.1-log 6 infection units per 10 ml. If requested by the Study Sponsor, the test virus is loaded with organic soil to the appropriate level. This is typically done when the test product is intended to be marketed as a single-stage disinfectant.

Values ​​stated in SI units should be accepted as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health and environmental practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.

Our organization, EUROLAB, provides standard application services to evaluate the activity of microbicides in suspension against viruses, within the framework of national and international standards, with its trained and expert staff and advanced technological equipment, among numerous test, measurement, analysis and evaluation studies. Provides testing services within the scope of ASTM E1052 standard.
