EN 14675:2015 (E) 5 Introduction This European Standard specifies a suspension test for establishing whether a chemical disinfectant or antiseptic has or does not have a virucidal activity in the areas described in the scope. This laboratory test takes into account practical conditions of application of the product including contact time, temperature, test organisms and interfering substances, i.e. conditions which may influence its action in practical situations. 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 some applications the recommendations of use of a product may differ and therefore additional test conditions need to be used. SIST EN 14675:2015



EN 14675:2015 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a test method and the minimum requirements for virucidal activity of chemical disinfectant and antiseptic 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 European Standard applies to products that are used in the veterinary area, i.e. in the breeding, husbandry, production, transport and disposal of all animals except when in the food chain following death and entry to the processing industry. NOTE 1 The method described is intended to determine the virucidal 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. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 14885, Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics — Application of European Standards for chemical disinfectants and antiseptics 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 14885 and the following apply: 3.1 cytotoxicity morphological alteration of cells and/or their destruction or their reduced sensitivity to virus multiplication caused by the product 3.2 plaque forming units

EN 14675:2015 (E) 8 5 Test method 5.1 Principle 5.1.1 A sample of the product as delivered and/or diluted with hard water (or water for ready to use products) is added to a test suspension of virus in a solution of an interfering substance. The mixture is maintained at 10 °C ± 1 °C for 30 min ± 10 s (obligatory test conditions). At the end of the contact time, 0,5 ml of virus/disinfectant mixture is taken. The virucidal activity is immediately suppressed by dilution in ice-cold diluent. A dilution series with a factor of ten is prepared in an ice-cold medium held in an ice bath for 10 min. Pipettes shall be changed after each dilution to avoid carry-over of virus. The dilutions are transferred into cell culture units (wells of microtitre plates) containing suspended cells. Eight series units shall be inoculated with each dilution. After incubation, the titre of infectivity is calculated. The titration results of quantal tests shall show dilution steps with the percentage of positive results (presence of CPE or plaques) lying between 100 % and 0 %. The values are calculated according to Spearman and Kärber (see Annex C). Values of virus inactivation are calculated from differences of virus titres before and after treatment with the product. 5.1.2 Additional and optional contact times and temperatures are specified. 5.2 Materials and reagents 5.2.1 Test virus The virucidal activity shall be evaluated using the following strain: — Bovine enterovirus Type 1 (Enteric Cytopathogenic Bovine Orphan Virus – ECBO) ATCC VR-2481). NOTE 1 Bovine enterovirus Type 1, strain ECBO, is selected as the model virus for the large Genus Picornavirus. The Genus Picornavirus includes many clinically important virus species, for example Coxsackie A and B, and enteric cytopathogenic human orphan (ECHO). Some of these viruses are of primary importance and therefore a constant risk for animals in the veterinary area. Moreover, they have a high resistance to chemicals, are acid-stable (except inter alia rhinovirus, aphtovirus) and are unaffected by lipid solvents such as ether, and most detergents or quaternary ammonium products. NOTE 2 It is the model virus for all applications namely for disinfection of instruments and surfaces and post-contamination treatment of post-mortem rooms, kennels and for animal accommodation. NOTE 3 Due to large differences of resistance against physical and chemical influences between and within different virus groups, the testing of all viruses against any particular chemical disinfectant or antiseptic is financially impossible. Therefore, in this European Standard, testing is restricted to only one so called ‘model virus’ that has been selected on the basis of the present knowledge as a representative example of virus tenacity and of important clinical relevance in the veterinary area. If a chemical disinfectant or antiseptic shows virucidal activity according to the requirements of this European Standard, it can be considered for a phase 2 step 2 test. If improvements in the methodology of virus multiplication, virus infectivity or cytoxicity reduction of products are elaborated, they may be used in parallel with the methodology described in this method to show the improvement.

A corresponding strain supplied by other culture collections may be used if they can be shown to lead to the same results. SIST EN 14675:2015



EN 14675:2015 (E) 9 5.2.2 Culture media and reagents 5.2.2.1 General All weights of chemical substances given in this European Standard refer to the anhydrous salts. Hydrated forms may be used as an alternative, but the weights required shall be adjusted to allow for consequent molecular weight differences. The reagents shall be of analytical grade and/or appropriate for virological purposes. They shall be free from substances that are toxic or inhibitory to the test organism. To improve reproducibility, it is recommended that commercially available dehydrated material is used for the preparation of culture media. The manufacturer's instructions relating to the preparation of these products shall be rigorously followed. For each culture medium and reagent a time limitation for use shall be fixed. Commercial ready-to-use products and culture media can be purchased, if they comply with the required specifications. 5.2.2.2 Water The water shall be freshly glass distilled water and not demineralized water. Sterilize in the autoclave [5.3.2.1 a)]. NOTE 1 Sterilization is not necessary if the water is used, e.g. for preparation of culture media, and subsequently sterilized. NOTE 2 See 5.2.2.3 for the procedure to prepare hard water. If distilled water of adequate quality is not available, water for injections (see bibliographic reference [3]) can be used. 5.2.2.3 Hard water for dilution of products For the preparation of 1 l of hard water, the procedure is as follows: — prepare solution A: dissolve 19,84 g magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and 46,24 g calcium chloride (CaCl2) in water (5.2.2.2) and dilute to 1 000 ml. Sterilize by membrane filtration [5.3.2.1 c)] or in the autoclave [5.3.2.1 a)]. Autoclaving – if used – may cause a loss of liquid. In this case make up to 1 000 ml with water (5.2.2.2) under aseptic conditions. Store the solution in the refrigerator (5.3.2.16) for no longer than one month; — prepare solution B: dissolve 35,02 g sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) in water (5.2.2.2) and dilute to 1 000 ml. Sterilize by membrane filtration [5.3.2.1 c)]. Store the solution in the refrigerator (5.3.2.16) for no longer than one week; — place 600 ml to 700 ml of water (5.2.2.2) in a 1 000 ml volumetric flask (5.3.2.13) and add 6,0 ml of solution A, then 8,0 ml of solution B. Mix and dilute to 1 000 ml with water (5.2.2.2). The pH of the hard water shall be 7,0 ± 0,2, when measured at 20 °C ± 1 °C (5.3.2.4). If necessary, adjust the pH by using a solution of approximately 40 g/l (about 1 mol/l) of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or approximately 36,5 g/l (about 1 mol/l) of hydrochloric acid (HCl). The hard water shall be freshly prepared under aseptic conditions and used within 12 h. SIST EN 14675:2015



EN 14675:2015 (E) 10 NOTE When preparing the product test solutions (5.4), the addition of the product to the hard water produces a different final water hardness in each test tube. In any case the final hardness is lower than 375 mg/l of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the test tube. 5.2.2.4 Interfering substance 5.2.2.4.1 General The interfering substance shall be chosen according to the conditions of use laid down for the product. The interfering substance shall be sterile and prepared at 10 times its final concentration in the test. The ionic composition (e.g. pH, calcium and/or magnesium hardness) and chemical composition (e.g. mineral substances, protein, carbohydrates, lipids and detergents) shall be defined. NOTE The term ‘interfering substance’ is used even if it contains more than one substance. 5.2.2.4.2 Low level soiling (Bovine albumin solution) Dissolve 3 g of bovine albumin (Cohn fraction V for Dubos Medium) in 90 ml of water (5.2.2.2) in a 100 ml volumetric flask (5.3.2.13). Make up to the mark with water (5.2.2.2). Sterilize by membrane filtration [5.3.2.1 c)]. Keep in a refrigerator (5.3.2.16) and use within one month. The final concentration of bovine albumin in the test procedure (5.5) is 3 g/l. 5.2.2.4.3 High level soiling (mixture of bovine albumin solution with yeast extract) Dissolve 50 g yeast extract powder in 150 ml of water (5.2.2.2) in a 250 ml volumetric flask (5.3.2.13) and allow foam to collapse. Make up to the mark with water (5.2.2.2). Transfer to a clean dry bottle and sterilize in the autoclave [5.3.2.1 a)]. Allow to cool to 20 °C ± 1 °C. Pipette 25 ml of this solution into a 50 ml volumetric flask (5.3.2.13) and add 10 ml of water (5.2.2.2). Dissolve 5 g of the bovine albumin fraction V in the solution with shaking and allow foam to collapse. Make up to the mark with water (5.2.2.2) sterilize by membrane filtration [5.3.2.1 c)], keep in a refrigerator (at 2 °C to 8 °C) (5.3.2.16) and use within one month.
