ASTM WK94600
Revision of E3435-24 Standard Practice for Testing Antimicrobial or Disinfectant Efficacy Against Biofilms Grown on a Medical Device or Surface by the Biofilm Surface Test Protocol (BSTP)
Rationale
The standard currently utilizes a specific "BSTM" series of devices and contains single-source wording. As a suitable alternative device has recently come to the attention of the sub-committee, this revision will seek to genericize the test devices and remove any single-source wording.
