Title (German)

Chemische Desinfektionsmittel und Antiseptika - Quantitativer Suspensionsversuch zur Bestimmung der viruziden Wirkung chemischer Desinfektionsmittel und Antiseptika für den Veterinärbereich - Prüfverfahren und Anforderungen (Phase 2, Stufe 1); Deutsche Fassung EN 14675:2015

Overview

DIN EN 14675 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, that is 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. The method described is intended to determine the virucidal activity of commercial formulations or active substances under the conditions in which they are used. This laboratory test takes into account practical conditions of application of the product including contact time, temperature, test organisms and interfering substances, that is 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. The European Standard has been prepared by CEN/TC 216 "Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics", the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR (France). The collaboration of DIN for the scope of CEN/TC 216 is performed through the national mirror committee, Working Committee NA 057-02-03 AA "Desinfektionsmittel Tierhaltung/Lebensmittelbereich" ("Disinfectants for veterinary use and food area") at the Standards Committee Food and Agricultural Products (NAL).
