ASTM E3160

ASTM E3160 is a quantitative evaluation of antibacterial performance of porous materials that have been treated with biocide to inhibit the growth of bacteria on the materials (textiles or paper).

This method was developed based on several industry standard techniques. The modifications were made and have been validated by International Biodeterioration Research Group (IBRG).

AATCC 100

AATCC 100 is a quantitative evaluation of antibacterial efficacy. The evaluation is determined by the degree of antibacterial activity intended in the materials.

JIS L1902

JIS L1902 determines the antibacterial efficacy of antibacterial textile products including cloth, wadding, thread, material for clothings, etc regardless of the type of antibacterial agent used.
