Fig. 5
Antimicrobial activity of the OxiLast™ formulation expressed as log10 reduction of two tested drug-resistant ATCC reference bacterial strains inoculated onto various Oxilast-coated surfaces in a hospital room and kept for one hour contact time. The tested surfaces on the left part of the graph refer to cabinet and bedrail (only) disinfected with the routine disinfectant (KlorKleen®) and inoculated after one hour (Day 0) and 24 h (Day 1), used as a comparison. The right part of the graph shows the antimicrobial capacity of the tested formulation inoculated onto three different surfaces at various coating ages (days). The “nt” notation refers to not-tested conditions. Error bars show standard deviation
