Purpose and Scope
The objective is to detect bacteriostatic activity on samples that are treated with antimicrobials and are capable of producing a zone of inhibition.
Some test samples do not have a flat surface and are not easily tested using AATCC TM147. This method provides the advantage of testing odd-shaped and non-flat samples such as batting, fiber fill, foam, plastic, yarn, etc. by partially embedding them into molten agar prior to
