Evaluation of Tuberculocidal Activity
Bacteria such as M. tuberculosis are more resistant to disinfections than vegetative bacteria and enveloped viruses due to the waxy layer that protects the microorganisms. For this reason, tuberkilocidal disinfectants should be tested within the scope of the relevant standards during the licensing processes.The most important test parameter for tuberkilocidal disinfectants used especially in hospitals and dispensaries is the "Evaluation of Tuberkilocidal Activity" procedures. With these methods, disinfectants can be licensed and made available to the consumer.
