New, Now, and in the Know at ATS Labs
Clostridium difficile sporicidal testing

ATS Labs has the ability to perform sporicidal efficacy testing to support EPA claims against Clostridium difficile, the organism known to cause serious illness within hospital, nursing home, and other healthcare environments.

Recently, the EPA issued interim guidance on acceptable test methods for supporting C. difficile sporicidal claims for sporicidal and disinfectant products.

For most disinfectant products, we believe the Quantitative Disk Carrier Test Method (ASTM 2197) is the most economical method for developing C. difficile sporicidal efficacy data. We recommend starting with a one lot screening study to verify sporicidal performance followed by a three lot GLP study to support an EPA registration. For your Clostridium difficle testing needs, please contact our Director of Microbiology Services and New Business Development Dave Rottjakob at 651-379-5519 or email him at dave.rottjakob@ats-labs.com.
