AIM: The aim of the study was to develop test methods and evaluate survival of Francisella philomiragia cells and MS2 bacteriophage after exposure to PES-Solid (a solid source of peracetic acid) formulations with or without surfactants. METHODS AND RESULTS: Francisella philomiragia cells (≥7·6 log10 CFU) or MS2 bacteriophage (≥6·8 log10 PFU) were deposited on seven different test materials and treated with three different PES-Solid formulations, three different preneutralized samples and filter controls at room temperature for 15 min. There were 0-1·3 log10 CFU (<20 cells) of cell survival, or 0-1·7 log10 (<51 PFU) of bacteriophage survival in all 21 test combinations (organism, formulation and substrate) containing reactive PES-Solid. In addition, the microemulsion (Dahlgren Surfactant System) showed ≤2 log10 (100 cells) of viable F. philomiragia cells, indicating the microemulsion achieved <2 log10 CFU on its own. CONCLUSIONS: Three PES-Solid formulations and one microemulsion system (DSS) inactivated F. philomiragia cells and/or MS2 bacteriophage that were deposited on seven different materials. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: A test method was developed to show that reactive PES-Solid formulations and a microemulsion system (DSS) inactivated >6 log10 CFU/PFU F. philomiragia cells and/or MS2 bacteriophage on different materials.
