 Cleaning Efficacy Tests 

Cleaning efficacy tests are intended to demonstrate the ability of the Washer Disinfector to remove or reduce to acceptable levels, soiling and contamination which occurs during normal use of re-usable surgical.

The sensitivity of any protein detection system should be at least as good as that described in HTM2030 using the ninhydrin method. HTM2030 described a positive protein control as 100 l of 0.5g/l arginine dried onto a surface.

The method chosen for protein detection should be able to detect down to 5g of arginine on a test swab, or better.

During a test positive and negative controls should be included. The negative control would consist of a sample of the swab being used for tests dipped in pure water and submitted to the test method.

A positive control would be an unused test swab dipped in pure water, then rubbed onto a 50 g of arginine area and tested for the presence of protein.

The negative control should give a clear negative result, while the positive control should show a clear positive indication.

Required to complete this test are a test soil to simulate a soiled instrument and a protein dectection kit to determine the levels of protein residue left after the thermal disinfection process.
