Analytical results for the bactericidal and fungicidal properties of some antiseptic drugs and disinfectants are presented. Regulatory and pharmacopoeial documentation concerning these issues was compared. Differences were revealed among the test microorganisms, conditions of procedures, methods of assessment, and quality requirements. Within the framework of this study, a general approach to the analysis has been formulated, a technique was developed and verified, and the applicability of the proposed method of sample neutralization by membrane filtration of antiseptic drugs and disinfectants was proven.
