Standard | Non-Standerdized Test Method: Microbial Reduction Rate Test | |
Testing Facility | Intertek Microbiological Laboratory 1717 Arlingate Ln. Columbus, OH 43228 United States |
SECTION 2 TEST PROCEDURE
The test chamber measured 10’x10x10′ (1000 cubic ft) room and a microbial suspension was aspirated into the chamber. Air samples were taken from the test chamber once the unit was turned on and sampling was taken every 15 minutes over a period of 2 hours, and then plated. The process was then repeated without the test unit in the chamber to provide the natural decay results. All plates were incubated overnight and viral growth on the test plate was compared to that of the natural decay control.
Air sampling took place using an SKC BioStage Single-stage impactor for 30 seconds at 12L/min (.424 cubic feet/min). Results below represent the percent reduction at 120 minutes.
