10、This neutralization may be achievedthrough dilution of the test substance to reduce the microbi-cidal activity,or through the use of chemical agents,calledneutralizers,to eliminate microbicidal activity.3.2.3 soil load,na solution of one or more organic and/orinorganic substances added to the suspen

15、,PA 19428-2959.United States1 4.Summary of Test Method4.1One part of the virus suspension is added to nine partsof the test substance,the mixture held at the desired tempera-ture for the required contact time and then assayed for viablevirus in an appropriate host system.For control,one part of thev
16、irus is added to nine parts of a buffer harmless to the virus andits host cells.Cell culture,cytotoxicity,and virus susceptibilitycontrols must also be included in each test.4.2 This test method must be performed by a trainedmicrobiologist or virologist who is responsible for choosing theappropriate host system for the test virus,and applying thetechniques necessary for propagation and maintenance of hostcell lines and test virus.For a reference text,refer to Schmidtet al.55.Significance and Use
