There are different treatments and technologies (coatings, additives for plastics, topography modifications, energy treatments…) that have certain antimicrobial properties.
Plastic, metal, glass, textiles…. any material can become a perfect host for bacteria. But how can you find out the level of microorganism growth in a given material?To know if the growth of microorganisms on a surface is feasible, it is vital to have a microbiological laboratory, with the necessary equipment to work in safe conditions, as well as to obtain reliable results without cross-contamination.
Thus, our team specialized in forensic engineering performs various tests, based on international standards and norms (the well-known and widely used Japanese Industrial Standard JIS Z 2801, as well as ISO 22196:2011 or ISO 20743:2013).
In addition to the official methods, several adaptations and modifications were made in order to simulate and reproduce the real conditions to which the material will be subjected.
- To know the surface antimicrobial properties of different types of materials
- To guarantee the quality of the results
- Work with international methods and standards to ensure the quality of the results
- Adapt the methods to simulate and reproduce the real conditions in which the material will be subjected to
