1.1本实验室试验方法用于确定一种抗菌剂的功效，以防止造纸工业中使用的过程中水基产品的细菌腐败。有关真菌腐败的信息，请参阅试验方法E 875。本试验方法应由受过基本微生物学培训的人员进行。 1.2 本标准并非旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如有）。本标准的用户有责任在使用前制定适当的安全和健康实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 ====意义和用途====== 本试验方法应用于确定抗菌剂是否能保护颜料悬浮液、染料溶液、纸浆浆、淀粉溶液、聚合物、施胶剂、乳液和造纸工业中使用的其他水基材料免受细菌腐败。

1.1 This laboratory test method is used to determine the efficacy of an antimicrobial for preventing bacterial spoilage of in-process aqueous-based products used in the paper industry. For information on fungal spoilage, see Test Method E 875. This test method should be performed by persons who have had basic microbiological training. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. ====== Significance And Use ====== This test method should be used to determine if an antimicrobial preserves pigment suspensions, dye solutions, pulp slurries, starch solutions, polymers, sizing agents, latex emulsions, and other aqueous-based materials used in the paper industry from bacterial spoilage.
