Antibacterial-treated porous and non-porous products have been commercialized and used among general consumers related to the hygenic properties which are different from what traditional materials had in terms of material protection. These products have gained major relevance, due to the presence of harmful microorganisms in or on various items. In response to these concerns scientific evidence must be available and chemical data must be submitted in support of the public health labeling claims and patterns of use of the product.
ISO 21702 is one of the most commonly requested antiviral surface test methods for evaluating the antimicrobial activity of antiviral-treated products such as plastics, coating materials, ceramics, natural and artificial leathers, stainless, rubber etc., and other non-porous surfaces. Due to the individual sensitivities, the results of one test virus might not be applicable for other viruses.
Eurofins BioPharma Product Testing in Italy performs antiviral activity testing of surfaces that include plastics and other non-porous surfaces against viruses according to ISO 21702. We can quantify the antiviral activity of surfaces or paints, sprays, or additives. We can test plastics, coating materials, ceramics, natural and artificial leathers, rubbers and other non-porous surfaces.
