European foreword

disinfectants and antiseptics”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.

Introduction
This document describes a surface test method for establishing whether a product proposed as a
disinfectant in the fields described in Clause 1 has or does not have virucidal activity on non-porous
surfaces.
The laboratory test closely simulates practical conditions of application. Chosen conditions (contact time,
temperature, organisms on surfaces etc.) reflect parameters which are found in practical situations
including conditions which may influence the action of disinfectants. Each use concentration found from
this test corresponds to defined experimental conditions.
The conditions are intended to cover general purposes and to allow reference between laboratories and
product types. Each utilization concentration of the chemical disinfectant or antiseptic found by this test
corresponds to defined experimental conditions.
However for special applications the recommendations of use of a product can differ and therefore
additional test conditions might be needed, which cannot be covered by this
...
