Purpose and Scope
This test method is designed to determine the antimicrobial activity of new carpet materials and consists of three procedures: a qualitative antibacterial assessment, a quantitative antibacterial assessment and qualitative antifungal assessment. It may also be used to evaluate the effect of a cleaning process (agreed upon by the interested parties) on the antimicrobial resistance of carpets.
