Testing of antimicrobial surfaces has become more and more necessary in recent years and has become possible with more standards being made available from different standards bodies around the globe. Antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral claims are now available for products such as impregnated plastics, glass, work surfaces, and paints. Interest in these claims have come under the spotlight with the increased awareness of what people touch day to day and the possibility of surfaces becoming a vector for transmission of illness.
