ASTM E2149

ASTM E2149: Standard Test Method for Determining the Antimicrobial Activity of Antimicrobial Agents Under Dynamic Contact Conditions

What is ASTM E2149?

  • Realistic Simulation: Treated samples are placed in an inoculum on a continuous shaker in order to mimic real world conditions.
  • Quantitative Results: Reported as log reduction values and percent reduction of microbial populations.
  • Wide Applicability: Suitable for textiles, coatings, polymers, and other materials treated with antimicrobial agents.

Our testing process

  1. Sample Preparation: Your material is prepared according to test guidelines.
  2. Inoculation: The sample is exposed to a standardized bacterial suspension in a dynamic environment.
  3. Incubation: The mixture is incubated while shaking to ensure continuous contact between microbes and the material.
  4. Enumeration: After a specified period, the remaining viable bacteria are counted.
  5. Reporting: We provide a detailed report, including percent and log reduction of bacterial populations.
