Protection from infections is of great importance, especially for people working in hospitals and various health care facilities. They are always in contact with sick people and medical devices, materials and materials that come into contact with human tissue and are exposed to microbes that can pass through this path. All medical devices, materials and materials used should be free from germs. For this purpose, it is very important to carry out cleaning operations and then to perform disinfection and sterilization procedures.

A significant number of microbes are found in organic dirt. These microbes start to multiply rapidly as soon as they find the appropriate humidity and temperature conditions. Therefore, cleaning significantly reduces the number of microbes and eliminates the possibility of growth. Organic dirt and residues prevent the subsequent disinfection and sterilization processes from being effective. Therefore, disinfection and sterilization will not produce the expected results if adequate cleaning is not performed. Tools, materials and materials that are cleaned and disinfected are disinfected or sterilized more effectively.

At the same time with the cleaning process, foreign proteins, microorganism residues and nucleic acids that can cause unwanted reactions and poisoning in the body are removed.

The sterilization process is the complete elimination of all living microorganisms. Disinfection is intended to destroy pathogenic microorganisms.

Antiseptics are chemicals that are applied to prevent germ contamination in a clean environment. The resistance of microbes to chemical and physical processes is very different. This is due to the biochemical structure of the microbes and to have systems to protect themselves.

Therefore, bactericidal activity tests of disinfectants and antiseptics used in medical field are important. These tests are performed among the bactericidal activity tests performed within the scope of disinfectant analyzes in authorized laboratories. These tests are based on standards published by various domestic and foreign organizations.
