Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics - Quantitative suspension test for the evaluation of mycobactericidal activity of chemical disinfectants in the medical area including instrument disinfectants - Test methods and requirements (phase 2, step 1)
This document specifies a test method and the minimum requirements for mycobactericidal (or tuberculocidal) 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. Products can only be tested at a concentration of 80 % or less as some dilution is always produced by adding the test organisms and interfering substance.
This document applies to products that are used in the medical area including those that are covered by the EEC/93/42 Directive on Medical Devices.
This document 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;
- in clinics of schools, of kindergardens and of 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.
NOTE 1 The method described is intended to determine the activity of commercial formulations or active substances under the conditions in which they are used.
NOTE 2 This method corresponds to a phase 2, step 1 test (see Annex E).
Chemische Desinfektionsmittel und Antiseptika - Quantitativer Suspensionsversuch zur Bestimmung der mykobakteriziden Wirkung chemischer Desinfektionsmittel im humanmedizinischen Bereich einschließlich der Instrumentendesinfektionsmittel - Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen (Phase 2, Stufe 1)
Dieses Dokument legt ein Prüfverfahren und die Mindestanforderungen an die mykobakterizide (oder tuberkulozide) Wirkung chemischer Desinfektionsmittel fest, die bei Verdünnung in Wasser standardisierter Härte als homogenes, physikalisch stabiles Präparat vorliegen (oder bei gebrauchsfertigen Produkten bei Verdünnung in Wasser). Die Produkte können nur bei einer Konzentration von 80 % oder weniger geprüft werden, weil durch Zugabe der Prüfkeime und Belastungssubstanzen immer eine gewisse Verdünnung erfolgt.
Dieses Dokument gilt für im humanmedizinischen Bereich verwendete Produkte einschließlich derer, die in der Richtlinie 93/42/EWG über Medizinprodukte behandelt werden.
Dieses Dokument gilt für Bereiche und Bedingungen, wo eine Desinfektion aus medizinischen Gründen indiziert ist. Solche Indikationen ergeben sich bei der Versorgung von Patienten, beispielsweise
- in Krankenhäusern, kommunalen medizinischen Einrichtungen und zahnärztlichen Einrichtungen,
- in medizinischen Bereichen in Schulen, Kindergärten und Pflegeeinrichtungen,
und können auch am Arbeitsplatz oder im häuslichen Bereich vorliegen. Es kann sich auch um Einrichtungen handeln wie Wäschereien und Küchen, die direkt Produkte für die Patienten liefern.
ANMERKUNG 1 Das beschriebene Verfahren dient zur Bestimmung der Wirksamkeit kommerziell erhältlicher Zubereitungen oder Wirkstoffe unter den Bedingungen, unter denen sie angewendet werden.
ANMERKUNG 2 Dieses Verfahren entspricht einer Prüfung der Phase 2, Stufe 1 (siehe Anhang E).
Antiseptiques et désinfectants chimiques - Essai quantitatif en suspension pour l'evaluation de l'activité mycobactéricide des désinfectants chimiques utilisés en médecine humaine et incluant les désinfectants pour dispositifs médicaux - Méthode d'essai et prescriptions (phase 2, étape 1)
Le présent document spécifie une méthode d'essai et les prescriptions minimales relatives à l'activité mycobactéricide (ou tuberculocide) des désinfectants chimiques qui forment une préparation homogène, physiquement stable, lorsqu’ils sont dilués dans l'eau dure ou — dans le cas de produits prêts à l’emploi — dans l’eau. Les produits ne peuvent être soumis à l’essai qu’à une concentration inférieure ou égale à 80 %, car l’ajout des micro-organismes d’essai et de la substance interférente entraîne toujours une dilution.
Le présent document s’applique aux produits utilisés dans le domaine médical, y compris ceux qui sont couverts par la Directive européenne 93/42/CEE sur les dispositifs médicaux.
Le présent document s’applique dans les zones et les situations où la désinfection est médicalement préconisée. De telles indications se rencontrent dans le cadre des soins apportés aux patients, par exemple :
dans des hôpitaux, centres de soins médicaux et cabinets dentaires ;
dans des infirmeries d’écoles, de jardins d’enfants et de maisons de retraite ;
et peuvent aussi se rencontrer sur les lieux de travail ou à domicile. Elles peuvent également concerner des services tels que des blanchisseries et des cuisines qui fournissent des produits directement aux patients.
NOTE 1 La méthode décrite est destinée à déterminer l’activité des formulations commerciales ou des substances actives dans leurs conditions d’utilisation.
NOTE 2 Cette méthode correspond à la phase 2, étape 1 (voir Annexe E).
