Regular hand sanitizer testing standards include:

QB/T2738 "Evaluation Methods for Antimicrobial and Bacteriostatic Effects of Daily Chemical Products"

EN1276 "Quantitative Suspension Test for the Bactericidal Activity of Disinfectants and Antiseptics in Food Industry, Industrial and Domestic Equipment, and Public Places"

EN1650 "Quantitative Suspension Test for the Fungicidal Effect of Disinfectants and Antiseptics in Industrial, Domestic, and Public Premises Equipment in the Food Industry"

EN1499 "Testing Methods and Requirements for Hand Sanitizers Containing Chemical Disinfectants and Antiseptics"

EN1500 "Test Methods and Specifications for the Frictional Sanitizing of Chemical Disinfectants and Hand Agents"

EN13727 "Quantitative Suspension Test Methods and Requirements for Chemical Disinfectants and Antiseptics"

Currently, hand sanitizers for disinfection and hand washing without rinsing, primarily used for sterilization, are in high demand in Europe. To demonstrate the product's sterilization effectiveness, EN1500 and EN1499 sterilization effectiveness tests are required.

EN1500 Test Item: Antiseptic Hand Rub Testing

EN1500 Test Content: Disinfectant Hand Disinfection Simulation Field Test, which involves a comparative test process using samples and reference samples (a hand simulation test with isopropyl alcohol). The test requires 30 volunteers, all of whom must be contaminated with bacteria on their hands before using the samples and reference samples for disinfection. Then, the remaining bacteria on the hands are counted and statistically analyzed to evaluate the effectiveness of the sample.
