3 SAMMANFATTNING
Effektiviteten hos biocidprodukter kan definieras som förmågan att åstadkomma en effektoch beror av den inneboende effektiviteten hos den aktiva substansen i produkten. Denpåverkas dock även av andra substanser i produkten och användningsmönstret. Inom EGregleras biocidprodukter av biociddirektivet (98/8/EC). Aktiva substanser bedöms på EGnivå medan produkterna regleras nationellt.
I direktivets Annex IIB beskrivs de informationskrav som ligger till grund för den påståddaeffektiveteten hos produkten. Det råder dock för närvarande ingen internationellsamstämmighet när det gäller specifika datakrav för respektive produkttyp för att styrkaden påstådda effektiviteten. I ”TNsG on Product Evaluation” saknas information för fleraprodukttyper när det gäller testdesign och huruvida det förekommer några standarder. ISverige ansågs tidigare att effektivitetsdata inte var viktiga för tillståndsprövningen avbiocidprodukter. Syftet med föreliggande rapport är därför att förse Kemikalieinspektionenmed en sammanställning och kort beskrivning (inklusive hur de utvärderas och vilkaeffektivitetskriter som råder) av tillgängliga effektivitetstester (både standarder och övriga),för samtliga produkttyper.
Test referenser och till viss del även testbeskrivningar erhölls genom att söka eftertestmetoder och kontaktpersoner via hemsidor, e-mail och telefonkontakt medmyndigheter, branschorganisationer, standardiseringsorganisationer, tillverkare,kommersiella laboratorier och forskningsinstitut. Sammanställningen täcker in allaprodukttyper förutom PT 16, 22 och 23 och innehåller referenser till 387 effektivitetstester,varav 341 är standarder. För en tredjedel av testerna summeras eller citeras syfte, design,
applicerbarhet och/eller effektivitetskriteria. Dessutom har mer än 250 testreferenserkontrollerats för att säkerställa att den senaste versionen tas med i sammanställningenoch för att förhindra att tester som inte längre är giltiga är med.
Eftersom effektivitet kan undersökas och mätas på så många olika sätt blir det svårt att jämföra effektiviteten hos olika produkter och att enas om krav på en viss prestanda hosprodukterna inom samma typ och användningsområde. I kombination med att det saknasspecifika testkrav finns det risk för en inkonsekvent bedömning i olika medlemsländer. Detär därför nödvändigt att myndigheter, standardiseringsorganisationer och industrintillsammans sätter prestandakrav, utecklar nya standardtester, tar fram referensproduktersamt arbetar fram listor på rekommenderade tester för specifika produkttyper ochanvändningsområden. En första början är att uppdatera de listor över tillgängliga tester
som finns i den nuvarande versionen av "TNsG on Product Evaluation".

4 BACKGROUND AND AIM OF THE PRESENT OVERVIEW
4.1 BACKGROUND
4.1.1 Biocidal Products Directive
In the European Community, authorisation of Biocidal Products (BP) is regulatedby the Biocidal Products Directive (BPD)1. In regulating the use of BPs, thebenefits are to be balanced against the risks. The authorisation of a BP shouldonly be granted if that product is shown to be sufficiently effective (article 5(1)(b) of
BPD) without posing an unacceptable risk to the environment. There should alsobe no other unacceptable effects (such as development of resistance).
Efficacy can be defined as the power to produce an effect, and is described in Annex IIB and VI of the BPD as the ability to fulfil label claims. The efficacy of aBP determines the lower concentration or dose limit that should be used. Efficacyis not only related to the intrinsic efficacy of the active substance/s of the productbut also affected by non-active substances (such as surfactants and solvents)included in the product. The efficacy of a product is also related to the use patternof the product. Knowledge about how BPs are used is therefore essential in theassessment of the product.
Active substances used in BPs placed on the market are assessed at Communitylevel and must first be listed on Annex I, IA or IB of the BPD. In order to include anactive substance on Annex I, IA or IB, the notifier needs to demonstrate that theactive substance is effective in at least one application.
Products are subject to national authorisation (BPD Annex VI, articles 51, 52, 92,93). Label claims are a central issue in the assessment of efficacy. The applicantneeds to submit data on the product to substantiate the label claim and intendeduses, and efficacy claims must be presented on the product label and in productinformation. Efficacy claims that could cause the product to be used in an
inappropriate way should be avoided, in order to minimize biocide use andunwanted side effects.
4.1.2 Data requirements related to efficacy
Data requirements are listed in Annex IIA, IIB, IIIA, IIIB as well as IVA and IVB ofthe BPD. Product related data is found in part B of these Annexes, whereas data
1 BPD: Directive 98/8/EC of the European parliament and of the council of 16 February 1998
concerning the placing of biocidal products on the market.

on the active substance is found in part A. The data and information required,relevant to the effectiveness of the BP is found in Annex IIB and the correspondingsection 5 of the Technical Notes for Guidance (TNsG) on Data Requirements2.
However, there is no international consensus on what data are required to provethe efficacy of a BP. In the TNsG on Product Evaluation3, it is stated that there areno existing guidelines on how to test the efficacy of BPs and no internationalagreements on label claims regarding supportive data or quality assuranceaspects of how such data are produced.
In an OECD survey4 from 1999, some questions on how authorities regarded
data on the efficacy of BPs were included. At the time of the survey, not allcountries (including Sweden) had an approval and/or notification process for allProduct Types (PTs)
5, which means that there were also no efficacy data
requirements for these PTs. Also, not all countries regarded efficacy data asimportant for the approval process. Ireland did not require any efficacy data atall, and Sweden did not consider them important for approval decision-makingsince they believed that the market will remove products that are not effectiveenough.
On the other hand, among the European countries in the survey, Belgium,Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Netherlands, Portugal,Switzerland and the UK considered ”insufficient efficacy” as a cause for notauthorising a specific biocide product, at least for some product types. InBelgium, tests simulating practical use conditions were required for biocides fornon agricultural use. For use in agriculture, efficacy data were needed for
disinfectants for veterinary use and for products against ecto-parasites. InDenmark, disinfectants were validated on data from a European suspensiontest or similar. Nordic standards were used to assess wood preservatives andpaper industry was evaluating effectiveness of slimicides for pulp production. InGermany, efficacy data were the most important data for approval of vectorcontrol products (insecticides, acaricides and rodenticides in the field ofhygiene) and the actual testing was performed by the Robert-Koch Institute(disinfectants), and by the Federal Environmental Agency. The testing includedlaboratory and field tests, and was based on vector extermination. AlthoughFinland did not consider ”insufficient efficacy” as a cause for not authorising aspecific biocide product, wood impregnation chemicals were tested andassessed by the Nordic Wood Preservation Council (non obligatory inspection)and the Agricultural Research Centre tested the efficacy of all insecticides,
rodenticides and repellents.

In chapter 7 of the TNsG on Product Evaluation, there is some guidance on how toproceed. It focuses particularly on information that is needed for stating label
claims, study robustness and report details, Quality Assurance procedures,evaluation of data and decision making. Any efficacy claims will depend on e.g.the PT use patterns and desired effects (including target organisms). If the producthas a broad label claim, suitable principal organisms should be identified as thetarget organisms.
Annex IIB of the BPD requires likely information for the basis of a label claim. Thisincludes PT, spectrum of biological activity [target organisms and theirdevelopment stage and function as well as mode of action (used also to evaluatepotential and existing pest resistance)], area of use/site of application,geographical variability, duration of control/effect, directions for use, other relevant
information (including target dose rate, variability and application method), efficacyor inefficacy of product under certain conditions (nature of infestation, density ofmicroorganisms, application temperature).
4.2 AIMS OF THIS OVERVIEW
The guidance provided in the TNsG on Product Evaluation is not in the form of achecklist and there are no rigid criteria to evaluate efficacy data. Expert scientific judgement is therefore necessary on a case by case basis. As stated in section
7.1.2. of the TNsG on Product Evaluation, the lack of harmonisation of efficacyrequirements can result in uncertainty, confusion, inconsistency andmisunderstandings regarding the extent of efficacy data required by the regulatoryauthorities.
The TNsG on Product Evaluation includes references to available standard testsfor Product Type (PT) 1-6, 8, 10, 13-15, 18 and 21. Nevertheless, for several PTsthere is no information on how the tests are performed and whether there arestandards available (PT 7, 9, 11, 12, 16, 17, 19, 20, 22, 23).
In Sweden, information about efficacy was not regarded as important for the
approval decision-making in national BP applications (dossiers). Moreover, someof the PTs that are now regulated by the BPD were previously exempted fromregulation (including food and feed area disinfectants, in-can preservatives andmetal working fluid preservatives) and some regulated PTs were not subject to anauthorisation process (human and veterinary hygiene biocide products,preservatives for food and feedstocks, embalming and taxidermist fluids andbiocides for “other vertebrates”).

In order to be better prepared for evaluating the efficacy data of BPs according tothe BPD, the aims of this project were to provide the Swedish Chemicals Agency(Kemikalieinspektionen, KemI), i.e. CA Sweden with
• an overview and brief description of available efficacy test methods(standards and "in house") for BPs, including all PTs
• information on how the tests are evaluated and what efficacy criteria areapplied.
Knowledge gaps should also be identified.
5 APPROACH
The present overview includes references to both standards and non standard ("inhouse") tests submitted by individual companies. Test references and, to someextent, test descriptions were found by searching for available test procedures andcontact persons on web pages, e-mail and phone correspondence with authorities,industry organisations, standardization organizations, individual manufacturersand test institutes. Some material (including protocols from a Technical Meeting in2005 at ECB) were also provided by KemI (CA Sweden).
Much effort was made to contact individual persons in companies and test
institutes, either by e-mail and/or phone, in order to include also test references to"in house" tests and information on what standards that are actually used byindividual companies.
The web pages of the following standardisation organisations were searched forefficacy tests currently available: ASTM, CEN, EPPO, ISO and OECD. Searchphrases included "efficacy", "antiseptics", "disinfectants", "antifouling","bactericides", "preservatives". It was also valuable to search standards throughthe Technical Committees and Working Groups, such as E35 for Pesticides under ASTM.
In order to obtain a starting point for available efficacy tests, the TNsG on ProductEvaluation and national guidelines (UK and NL) were also consulted.
The project was performed during the period of November-December in 2007.

6 INTRODUCTION
6.1 PERFORMANCE STANDARDS vs LABEL CLAIMS
Performance standards refer to a predetermined efficacy required by theauthorities and should, according to the TNsG on Product Evaluation, be the samewithin all Member States for a particular use and situation. The performance standard ("pass/fail criteria") can be expressed in quantitative or qualitative6 terms.
Label claims are made by the manufacturer and written on the product label. Itmakes a claim about the function of the product, such as pest organisms that it
controls, duration of control, type of control (kill, repel etc), and directions for use(including method and application rate).
6.2 EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN OF EFFICACY TESTS
The experimental design of efficacy tests can be divided into three different types:screening tests, simulation tests and field tests.
Screening tests are usually laboratory studies of either the active substance orsimple formulations and often performed during a relatively short period of time.Studies may include dose-response tests and several replicates. Laboratory dataare usually not sufficient to predict actual treatment levels or effectiveness inservice under real situations, but can be used to estimate the innate efficacy of theproduct. An untreated control should be included.
Simulation tests are performed in artificial environments that resemble the realconditions during use and often the actual product is used in the test. An untreatedcontrol should be included.
Field studies generate data based on actual use of the product as prescribed bythe product label. Even if the exposure conditions are more realistic than thescreening tests it should be kept in mind that they are still only representing aparticular situation and efficacy could be influenced if changing e.g. the level ofpest pressure or application technology. In addition, even if time scales aregenerally longer, it is frequently not possible to perform the test during the full lifecycle of the product. PT 8 tests last e.g. 5 years but the service life might be 60years.
6 including e.g. percentage kill, extent of remaining population, greatest dilution of product still
producing the desired effect etc

The product should preferably be tested at a variety of application rates, includinglevels below those suggested in a real use situation. The last point ensures thatthe biocidal product dose will be as low as possible.
As in any laboratory testing of chemicals, and also stated in the TNsG on ProductEvaluation, it is appropriate to include a negative (untreated) and/or positive (aproduct/test material with the same use pattern and with proven efficacy, oftencalled a reference product) control. The negative control provides importantinformation to estimate the extent of the problem without any treatment. However,for field tests, there are often limited possibilities to include replicates in the studyand to include untreated areas as a control. The latter aspect is sometimesapproached by including pre- and posttreatment assessments. Standard BPs, tobe used as positive controls in the efficacy tests, have been developed for e.g. PT18 and 8 and can facilitate the ranking of products but also help to control the
reproducibility of a test and facilitates comparisons with other test facilities.
6.3 STANDARDISED AND " IN HOUSE" PROCEDURES
As stated in BPD Annex VI, efficacy testing should be carried out according toCommunity guidelines if available and applicable, but other methods may also beused, including other international standards (e g CEN, ISO), national standards,industry standards, individual producer standards or data from product
development, as long as these are accepted by the Competent Authority (CA).
The availability of international standards varies between PTs. In the TNsG onProduct Evaluation, there are several standards listed for PT [1-5]7, [8]8, [14]9 and[18]10; and a few for PT [6]11, [10]12, [13]13, [15]14 and [21]15. For PT 1-5, 6, 8, 10,13, 14, 18 and 21 some of the information and guidance provided in the TNsG onProduct Evaluation is summarised below. For further details, the reader shouldconsult the original reference.

microorganisms causing aesthetic problems (odour) in presence ofmoisture.
• The EN approach is to divide the tests into phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3
tests, corresponding to testing of innate activity, simulated use and "field"testing (under practical conditions) respectively. Phase 2 tests aresubdivided into 2 steps (suspension tests and others):
o Phase 1: Suspension tests to test innate bactericidal, fungicidaland/or sporicidal activity; defining minimum standards.
o Phase 2, step 1: Suspension tests, simulating the conditions duringpractical use
o Phase 2, step 2: Other tests (handwash, handrub, surface test),simulating the conditions during practical use
o Phase 3: Field tests (practical conditions)
• Broad label claims for PT 2, if intended to be used as a disinfectant in public
hygiene, should indicate efficacy against Gram negative and Gram positivebacteria. Furthermore, if intended to destroy tuberculosis bacteria, claimsagainst Mycobacterium tuberculosis will need to be substantiated.
• Influencing factors to consider during efficacy testing of disinfectantbiocides include water hardness, interfering substances, contaminants,temperature, contact time, pH and the roughness of the surface.
6.3.2 PT 6: In-can preservatives
• Spoilage of in-can and in-tank products may be the result ofmicroorganism’s (primarily bacteria16 but also yeast17 and moulds18)feeding on substances present in the product, leading to reduced integrity.By-products of microbial growth can also contribute to spoilage andconsequences include discoloration, gassing, viscocity loss etc.
• Laboratory tests are performed either as MIC (Minimal InhibitoryConcentration), challenge testing or heat stability testing. The usual methodfor evaluating in-can preservatives in paints or other aqueous products isthe challenge test.
o MIC determinations are conducted on a dilution series of the active
substance. The minimum amount of biocide that is required to inhibitmicrobial growth is identified and efficacy is assessed against arange of bacterial, fungal and yeast spoilage organisms. Results arepresented as the concentration required to inhibit the growth of aparticular test organism and are useful for determining the spectrumof activity of an active substance.
o In the challenge test, microbial cells are added to the test sampleand the survival or death rate of these cells is monitored with respectto time.

o The level of active substance is usually measured by a suitablechromatographic method at time zero and after incubation at anelevated temperature to determine whether the biocide has
degraded. Incubation time and temperature varies between tests andthe results indicate the stability of the active substance in a particularproduct formulation.
• US EPA assessment criteria require that the active substances shouldshow effectiveness against bacteria in at least two representativeformulations in which the biocide is intended for use and tested (simulated-use) in at least three replicates of each of the two product formulations. Actual bacterial isolates (identified at least to genus) from spoiled productand/or ATCC (American Type Culture Collection) spoilage bacteria shouldbe employed as test inocula. Mixed bacterial and fungal inocula are notacceptable in demonstrating bacterial deterioration. Bacteriological
sampling should be quantitative and product quality observed concurrently.Test duration: 6 m to 1 yr. Conditions in the negative controls should causesignificant growth and deteriorative (physical and chemical) changes.
6.3.3 PT 8: Wood preservati ves
• Durability of treated products will rely on the residue in wood which remainsactive for the claimed service life. Efficacy will to a large extent depend onclimate (extremely variable situations exist within the EuropeanCommunity), target organisms, wood species, application process19 andexposure class (see below).
• Label claims should include a statement whether the product is aimed atfungal, insect or attack from marine borers, and whether it is a preventive orremedial (curative, eradicant)20 product. The test data required for remedialclaims may need to consider both preventive and eradicant action.
• The data required will depend on the Use/Hazard classes (see e.g. EN 335-1, -2, -3), based on increasing level of wetting degree and exposureseverity: Hazard class 1: Above ground (Dry) exposure; class 2: Aboveground (wetting, protected from the weather); class 3: Above ground(Exposed to weathering, but not in ground contact); class 4: Timbers incontact with the ground or fresh water, or above ground if water trapping orlogging exist. Hazard class 5: Timbers in the marine environment21.
19 There are three types of application methods: Penetrating treatments (including “double

6.3.4 PT 10: Masonry biocides
• Effectiveness (often described as kill or prevention of regrowth) depends onsubstrate, target organisms (including dry rot fungus, fungus/yeasts,lichens, mosses and liverworts), penetration, concentration used etc.
• In laboratory tests for general surface BP use, different concentrations ofthe active substance is absorbed on assay discs applied to agar that isseeded with fungal or algae. The zone of growth inhibition is determinedafter incubation. There are also simulated use and field tests.
• To test products intended for the control of dry rot, simulated use tests arebased on employing mortar treated with the product and then exposed tochallenge by Serpula lacrymans. Growth over or through the treated
substrate is evaluated. Outbreaks of dry rot are unique and to control growth it isneccary to implement a number of measures. It is therefore difficult to include"untreated controls" and to design field tests.
6.3.5 PT 13: Metalworking flu id preservatives
• Simple laboratory tests generally determine MIC (Minimum InhibitoryConcentrations). Many plant variables (such as machine characteristics,metal, and the present microorganisms - both bacteria and fungi and yeast)can influence overall preservative efficacy. Field use levels are therefore
often difficult to predict based on laboratory tests.• In simulated use tests the fluid and preservative is generally placed in a
vessel and tested in a shaker, aeration or pump system, regulated in amanner that simulates the plant conditions. Microbial inoculation isperformed repeatedly and the fluid is monitored regarding visualappearance, pH, oxygen uptake and the presence/survival ofmicroorganisms.
• Field (in-use) tests will only be applicable to the particular conditions duringthe test and it may be difficult to run concurrent negative controls.
6.3.6 PT 14: Rodenticides
• Rodent species can cause montory loss (through consumption or spoilageof foodstuff or damage due to gnawing and burrowing) and spread disease.Major target organisms include rats and house mice. Selected test speciesshould be relevant to the geographic region and specified on the label.
• Laboratory test methods for products include “no choice” tests (testorganisms are only offered contaminated food) and “choice” tests (bothcontaminated and uncontaminated food is offered) as well as studiesrelated to specific product types (contact rodenticides or gassing agents) orrelated to specific efficacy claims (for use in damp situations).

• In field trials /under seminatural conditions/ rodent activity on the site shouldbe determined before and after treatments and amount of bait consumedshould be monitored.
6.3.7 PT 18: Insecticides, acaricides and products to control other arthropods
• The standards can be used for testing efficacy against flying, crawling,larval insects and also to test fumigants.
• Product applications include spr ay, textiles and fumigation. The effectsinclude knockdown, kill, residual22, flushing, ovicidal/larvicidal and thecontrol of resistant pests. Treatment methods include general surfacetreatment, crack/crevice treatment, contact (direct) space spray, spottreatment and baits.
• The tests are performed either as lab/screening tests, simulated use testsor field tests.
6.3.8 PT 21: Antifouling products
• Although there are a few standards related to antifouling products, theseare usually related to leaching rate rather than efficacy. The two standardsincluded produce simulated field data (raft testing) during which panelscoated with the test formulation are immersed in water under static
conditions. Other test principles could be in vitro (lab test) and field (patch)test.
7 RESULTS
7.1 TEST REFERENCES FOUND IN THIS OVERVIEW
National and international standards, in house tests and other test references areincluded in the list presented in Appendix I, comprising in total 387 test references.Of these, 341 are standards and 46 are "in house" and other non standardisedprocedures developed either by the manufacturers or external test institutes andresearch laboratories.
The standard test references already listed in TNsG of Product Evaluation are allincluded in the list, except tests that are not considered "efficacy tests" (see below)and tests that have since been withdrawn. In addition, web pages of some of thestandardisation organisations were searched for the latest versions and currently

Residual effects are due to active substances that remain active for a long time (weeks tomonths) in order to control e.g. walking insects (that are unlikely to react to space sprays).Treatments are applied at high dosages to surfaces or as palatable baits.

available tests (see next section). Manufacturers, industry organisations, otherMSs and test institutes and laboratories were also contacted regarding tests thatthey use or know are being used.
About 90 manufacturers, test institutes and industry organisations were contacted.Out of these, 37 responded. In some cases there was a high interest in the projectbut due to the limited timeline of the project and/or other restrictions somecompanies could not contribute with specific test references to particular productsto be included in the overview. In addition, some of the contacted companies didnot manufacture and/or test /the efficacy of/ BPs. Nevertheless, 14 companiescontributed with a total of 130 test references (including both standards and othertest methods) to the overview, and one manufacturer will send referencesseparately at a later stage.
7.1.1 International standardisation organisations – own searches
The web pages of the following standardisation organisations were also searchedfor efficacy tests currently available: ASTM, CEN, EPPO, ISO and OECD. Theresults are included in Appendix I.
Some additional CEN standards only indirectly related to actual efficacy testinginclude (but is probably not limited to) EN 1014 part 1-4 (methods of sampling andanalysis of creosote), EN212:2003 (General guidance on sampling and
preparation for analysis of wood preservatives and treated timber), EN 335-1 and -2 s well as EN 599-1 and -2 and EN 14128:2003 (related to use and hazardclasses, performance criteria and labelling regarding durability of wood and wood-based products). These tests are not included in Appendix I.
EPPO is primarily focused on Plant Protection Products, although some standardscan also be applicable to some biocidal product types, such as rodenticides (PT14) and fumigants (PT 18). Except for the standards included in Appendix I, theyhave also published a “Good Plant Protection Practice” for rodent control for cropprotections and on farms23.
ASTM has several standards applicable to microorganisms and woodpreservatives but also other PTs. Most ASTM standards have not been ringtested, except some of the standards that correspond to USEPA methods.Working groups searched are E35 (Pesticides, including subcommittees 35.12Insect control agents, 35.22 Pesticide formulations and delivery systems, 35.15 Antimicrobial agents), E47.01 (Aquatic Assessment and Toxicology), D31.02(Leather, subcommittee wet blue), D01.28 (Biodeterioration) and D01.45 (MarineCoatings), both subcommittees under D01 (Paint and related coatings, materials

and applications), G03.04 (Weathering and durability, biological deterioration),D14.30 (Wood adhesives, subcommittee under D13 Adhesives).
Some additional ASTM standards only indirectly related to actual efficacy testinginclude (but is not limited to): ASTM E1326-06 (Standard guide for evalutatingnonconventional microbiological tests used for enumerating bacteria), ASTMD5259-92(2006) (Standard Test Method for Isolation and Enumeration ofEnterococci from Water by the Membrane Filter Procedure), ASTM E1427-00e1(Standard Guide for Selecting Test Methods to Determine the Effectiveness of Antimicrobial Agents and Other Chemicals for the Prevention, Inactivation andRemoval of Biofilm), D283-84(1990)e1 and D284-88(1993)e1 (related to chemicalanalysis of active substances in antifouling products) and D5108-90 (StandardTest Method for Organitin Release Rates of Antifouling Coating Systems in SeaWater). These are not included in the list.
ISO standards have been ring tested but there are only a few available publishedefficacy standards, included in Appendix I.
As opposed to e.g. fate and ecotoxicity tests, efficacy testing is covered only to alittle extent by OECD guidelines. There are only a few applicable OECD guidelinespublished, although there are some drafts, see Appendix I. Five new test methodsto evaluate efficacy of antimicrobials on hard surfaces will be investigated in ringtrial. For the particular case of testing piscicides (PT17), it is possible to use testguidelines that were developed for aquatic toxicity testing.
The US EPA Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances (OPPTS) haspublished updated test guidelines in ten series, of which 810 is related to productperformance24. Nine guidelines related to Product Performance were finalized andpublished on the web page at the time of the present project and included in theoverview.
7.1.2 Tests used in other MSs – TM and national guidelines
In the second Technical Meeting at ECB in 2005 (TMII05), the MSs were asked to
submit references to any efficacy tests that they knew were being used within theirterritory, based on a list provided by COM. CA France provided a detailedresponse and test references on their list have been included in Appendix I, if alsofound on the homepages of the standardisation organisations. In the German list,some standards that are not actually efficacy tests were indicated and thereforeerased from Appendix I.
In the UK, detailed national guidance documents can be found at the Health andSafety Executive (HSE) website25 for wood preservatives, rodenticides, anti-foulingproducts, surface biocides, as well as insecticides and acaricides. These

guidelines outline the nature and extent of testing required to gain approval and allbut the antifouling guideline include lists of available standards. Upon contactingthe HSE, it was found that the most commonly used efficacy standards they have
encountered so far are EN standards, but ASTM standards are probably the nextmost frequently submitted. They state that industry tests are also common,especially for some PTs. Wood preservatives have generally been testedaccording to CEN standards; insecticides according to in house tests (but whereguidelines are used, they are most frequently WHO tests); rodenticides accordingto non standard tests or EPPO guidelines; anti-fouling paints were normally testedin industry raft tests or patch tests and finally surface biocides were mostcommonly tested according to non standard test methods. A list of references totests for some PTs that was so far included in the authorisation process was alsoprovided and these references have been included in Appendix I.
In Denmark, wood preservatives are efficacy tested according to CEN standards.
In the Netherlands, The Board for the Authorisation of Plant Protection Productsand Biocides (Ctgb)26 is responsible for the authorisation of biocides. On itswebsite, efficacy concept guidance documents are available for disinfectants,wood preservatives and rodenticides. There is also a guidance document comingup on insecticides and a new version of the rodenticide guideline is presentlybeing negotioated in Technical Meetings. References found in the last version ofthe rodenticide guidance document as well as the guidance for wood preservativeswere included in Appendix I.
7.1.3 Methods in use according to manufacturers and indust ry organisations
In the TNsG on Product Evaluation as as well as national guidelines (UK and NL)there are several lists of available standard tests available for efficacy testing ofbiocide products (see above). However, they do not make any comments on thesuitability of particular test methods and how frequently they are used. In order toobtain an indication as to what tests are actually applied on the BPs by differentcompanies today (i.e. what test data the CA Sweden – and other Member States –may expect to receive in applications), manufacturers were also contacted to ask
about what tests they use on their products. In addition, several tests available arenot in the form of standards but rather “in house” methods, sometimes developedby the companies themselves and therefore not listed in the TNsG on ProductEvaluation.
Companies were initially contacted in Sweden but because suitable contactpersons were usually found to be located abroad, the companies were later mainlycontacted internationally. In addition, test institutes were also contacted, regardingavailable efficacy tests on BPs and these references are also included in AppendixI.

7.1.4 Test endpoints
In the TNsG on Product Evaluation it is pointed out that Good Laboratory Practice(GLP) is not required for efficacy tests, although the spirit of these principlesshould be applied at least during documentation. Due to limited access to full texttest descriptions and the short time period of the project, an in-depth evaluation ofany particular tests could not be performed. The individual design, applicability andefficacy criteria, was therefore only briefly cited or summarised in Appendix I, ifinformation was available from either the home page of the standardisationorganisations or from full text references. However, it can be concluded that theresults of efficacy tests are expressed in numerous ways, depending on PT, test
design etc. Some examples of efficacy endpoints are "mean time to 50%knockdown of flies", % kill, EC50 ("concentration causing the measured effect in50% of the test population"), "elapsed time to first bite", “% ants crossing a tilewithin 60 minutes”, “MIC (Minimum Inhibitory Concentration)”, ‘”% reduction inCFU (Colony Forming Units)” etc, see Appendix I for particular tests.
7.2 LIMITATIONS AND KNOWLEDGE GAPS
In this project, a priority was to cover most or preferably all PTs rather than obtain
in depth information on tests for a particular PT. Although for some PTs only a fewtest references were found, Appendix I covers all PTs except PT 16, 22 and 23. One reason for the major lack of information on some PTs may be that there areonly a few products that will belong to this group (particularly true for e.g. PT 20,because these products are generally covered by other regulations), but also thatnot all product types have been previously regulated in all Member States.
Almost 90 % of the tests included in the overview are standards, although thesituation can vary between different PTs. There are most likely several additional"in house" and non standardised tests, not available to the author during therelatively short time period of the project. The coverage related to non standard
tests is related to the contributions obtained from different manufacturers. Thereare also several additional standards available, but in this project in-depthsearches were focused on international standardisation organisations rather thannational standards.

8 DISCUSSION
BPD Annex VI, paragraph 92 and 93:
”92. Member States shall not authorise a biocidal product which does notpossess acceptable efficacy when used in accordance with the conditionsspecified on the proposed label or with other conditions of authorisation.
93. The level, consistency and duration of protection, control or other intendedeffects must, as a minimum, be similar to those resulting from suitable referenceproducts, where such products exist, or to other means of control. Where noreference products exist, the biocidal product must give a defined level ofprotection or control in the areas of proposed use. Conclusions as to theperformance of the biocidal product must be valid for all areas of proposed use
and for all areas in the Member State except where the proposed labelprescribes that the biocidal product is intended for use in specificcircumstances. Member States shall evaluate dose response data generated intrials (which must include an untreated control) involving dose rates lower thanthe recommended rate, in order to assess if the recommended dose is theminimum necessary to achieve the desired effect.”
8.1 EVALUATING EFFICACY – COMPARING TEST RESULTS TO LABEL
CLAIMS AND PERFORMANCE STANDARDS
The purpose of testing BPs using efficacy tests, is to determine whether theproducts posess “acceptable efficacy” (see BPD Annex VI, para 92). Statisticallysignificant results in a quantitative test including a negative control indicateswhether the product is efficient compared to no treatment at all. However, as withany laboratory testing, whether a particular result is statistically significant isinfluenced by aspects such as the number of replicates tested and other factorsrelated to test design (incubation period, choice of test organism etc). Therefore, aproduct may be "efficient" according to one particular test, but maybe not ifapplying other test conditions.
Furthermore, “statistically significant” may not be efficient enough from a user’spoint of view. A product causing 20% reduction in the number of cockroaches isprobably not regarded as efficient enough. BPs need to be efficient also in “reallife” and should fulfil minimum requirements for a certain use. Therefore, testresults need to be compared to performance standards (pass/fail criteria).
Individual efficacy test methods usually do not include pass/fail criteria, althoughthere exists CEN standards with pass-fail criteria for PT 8 (EN599) and severalapplications under PT 1-5 (prEN14885:2006). Therefore, in most cases, the
efficacy of BPs has to be evaluated by comparing test results to the label claimsmade by the manufacturer. The evaluating authorities need good knowledge about

Even with long term field tests it is not easy to predict real performance of theproduct. The problems associated with efficacy testing are not unique though;
predicting ecosystem effects of chemicals based on a few toxicity tests performedin the laboratory is also not a simple task. However, if harmonising performancestandards in so far as possible for particular PTs, use situations and label claims,the authorisation process as well as the choice of test method and design will befacilitated.
9 CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
• In total, 387 test references are included in this overview, covering all PTsexcept 16, 22 and 23. The overview is based on references from the TNsGon Product Evaluation and information from manufacturers, MSs andnational guidelines, test institutes and own searches of tests available onthe homepage of some international standardisation organisations. About90% of the available tests included are standards.
• For one third of the test references included in this overview, the scope,design, applicability and/or efficacy criteria is briefly summarised as far aspossible if information was available.
• The test references of more than 250 standards have been checked tomake sure that the newest version available is included in the overview.
• Efforts should be made to developo performance standards (pass/fail criteria) to minimize inconsistent
evaluation of efficacyo additional standard methods in order to cover the most frequent
applicationso suitable reference substances, to facilitate ranking of different BPs
that were tested using different procedures and also the evaluationof the reproducibility of test results.
o lists of recommended tests for particular products and use situations.
• Authorities, standardisation organisations and industry representativesneed to be involved during the development of pass/fail criteria, new teststandards, reference products identification and to establish lists ofrecommended tests for particular product applications. As a start, the listsof available standards for efficacy testing of BPs need to be updated in theTNsG on Product Evaluation, since several tests have been withdrawn orreplaced by newer versions. It is the hope of the author that the present
overview may be of assistance in this process.

10 APPENDIX I. TEST PROCEDURES (STANDARDS AND OTHER
REFERENCES).
The following table includes relevant standards from TNsG on Product Evaluation,list of standards used in France, national guidelines (UK, NL), results from ownsearches on the web page of standardisation organisations, standards and nonstandardized test refered to and/or supplied by manufacturers, industryorganizations and performing laboratories. The standards related to multiplesources are updated to the most recent version if applicable. References in italicshave been checked by searching the web page of the standardisation organisation(reference number, title) and, if applicable, been updated to the most recent
version of the test.
The suitability of particular test methods have not been evaluated, but for severaltests (if information was available to the author), the test procedures andevaluation criteria have been briefly summarised, based or cited mainly frominformation found in the description of the tests available on the web pages of thestandardisation organisations, full test description and/or from the TNsG onProduct Evaluation (TNsG PE).
For ASTM methods, the number after the hyphen is refering to the last revisiondate of the test; the number in parenthesis is referring to the last reapproval of the
test.
The table includes only standards that are related to efficacy testing (as far as thishas been possible to read out from the title and available descriptions of thestandard), not e.g. use class standards (for PT8), leaching rate standards (for PT21) etc. Standards that may have been present in the TNsG on Product Evaluationbut withdrawn since then (such as several ASTM standards related to avicides,PT15) are also not included. Section 810.2000 of the OPPTS of US EPA is relatedto antimicrobials in public health, but none of the guidelines were found on theEPA web page at the time of the project. Although several EPA guidelines relatedto PT 1-5 were included in the TNsG on Product Evaluation, these are not
included in table 1 due to uncertain reference details (titles are missing in theTNsG PE).
The list is not exhaustive and the PT designation of a particular test reference maynot always reflect possible applications of the test method and in some cases itwas difficult to assign the test to a particular PT.

plates. Because no procedurefor neutralization of theantimicrobial action of activeingredients can be included inthe test, the agar patchmethod is limited to the extentthat results expressed aspercent inhibition do notdifferentiate betweenbacteriostatic and bacteriocidaleffects and, hence, must notbe portrayed as “reductions.”

1-5 The test is based on therelease of vital daughter cellsfrom the sample surface intothe surrounding. Theproliferation activity of thesedaughter cells, which areresponsible for infectiondevelopment, can be
monitored in a time course. Antimicrobial activity ismonitored by the time neededto reach a defined opticaldensity, which is dependent onthe number of releaseddaughter cells. Allmeasurements are performedin comparison to an untreatedcontrol (without antimicrobialadditive). The differencebetween the reference (A) andthe test sample (B) to reach
the threshold OD gives thedegree of antimicrobial activity.If all bacteria on the surface ofthe material are preventedfrom multiplying, no daughtercells are produced and the testobject is consideredbactericidal. Materials can alsobe antimicrobial, which meansthat not all cells on the testsurface are prevented fromgrowing. Some cells are ableto divide and release daughter
cells into the surroundings,which are then optically

registered in a so-calledgrowth curve. If survivingdaughter cells are grown undercontrolled conditions over 48 h(observation time), a higherturbidity and therefore a biggersignal is generated. At thesame time only vital andproliferative cells areaccounted for.
In particular antimicrobialsamples will release daughtercells into the surrounding.Hence, microbial growth is firstobserved noticeably later. Thisright-shift towards longer timesis indicative for theantimicrobial efficacy of thetested samples. The so-calledonset OD serves as aquantifiable parameter and isequivalent to the requirednumber of hours required for
the surviving daughter cells togrow to a predefined opticaldensity (OD = 0.2).
A material is defined to beantimicrobial only if theformation of at least 99.9%(which is equivalent to a netonset-OD of 6 hours and issimilar to a killing rate of 3log10 steps) of the daughtercells during the challenge timeis prevented in comparison

Conditions favorable for attack,namely, a temperature of 2 to38°C (35 to 100°F) and arelative humidity of 60 to 100% need to be established.Expected effects includesurface attack, discoloration,loss of transmission (optical),and removal of susceptibleplasticizers, modifiers, andlubricants, resulting inincreased modulus (stiffness),changes in weight,

In addition,the viable counts of fungi/algaein the control must at least beequal to the numbers at time 0.The untreated control shouldshow a stable population withno more than 0.5 log increaseor decrease in growth duringthe test perod. Results areexpressed as “Log reduction in
number of microorganisms ateach biocide concentration”:log (initial count ofmicroorganisms of the controlsample) – log (number ofmicroorganisms detected at agiven biocide concentrationafter a specific contact time). If1 log reduction: corresponds to90% kill, if 2 log reductioncorresponds to 99% kill, 3 logreduction to 99.9% kill.

The exposure timeshould correspond to the realtime desired, often 6w.Separate evaluations shouldbe made on a representativetype for each specific class ofproduct to be preserved.Growth is determined byvisible signs of deterioration in
the sample and by obtainingfungal numbers and comparingthem to a sample withoutfungal control agents. A properlevel of fungal control agentprevents deterioration andreduces and keeps organismsto an acceptable level in thetest material, which isdetermined by the tester oruser.

Challenged fluidbioresistance is defined interms of resistance to biomassincrease, viable cell recoveryincrease, chemical propertychange, physical propertychange or some combinationthereof.This practice is applicable toantimicrobial agents that are
incorporated into either themetalworking fluid concentrateor end-use dilution. It is alsoapplicable to metalworkingfluids that are formulated usingnon-microbicidal, inherentlybioresistant components.The results of tests completedin accordance with thispractice should be used only tocompare the relativeperformance of products ormicrobicide treatments

Standard Test Methodfor Efficacy ofMicrobicides Used inCooling Water Systems
11 Efficacy of microbicides(algicides, bactericides,and fungicides), evaluatedusing simulated or realcooling tower water against(1) microbes from coolingwater, (2) microbes inmicrobiological deposits(biofilms) from operating
cooling systems, or (3)microorganisms known tocontaminate cooling watersystems, or a combinationthereof. Choice ofenumerating method mayvary, e g pour plate, spreadplate, MPN techniques etc.Test concentrations alsovary but are usuallybetween 1 and 50 mg/l.Exposure time varies withmode of action but includes

Antimicrobial activity ismonitored by the timeneeded to reach a definedoptical density, which isdependent on the numberof released daughter cells.
All measurements areperformed in comparison toan untreated control(without antimicrobialadditive). The differencebetween the reference (A)and the test sample (B) toreach the threshold ODgives the degree ofantimicrobial activity. If allbacteria on the surface ofthe material are preventedfrom multiplying, no
daughter cells areproduced and the testobject is consideredbactericidal. Materials canalso be antimicrobial, whichmeans that not all cells onthe test surface areprevented from growing.Some cells are able todivide and releasedaughter cells into thesurroundings, which arethen optically registered in
