Abstract
The construction of detailed test methods for the evaluation of disinfection procedures has primarily to be based upon requirements which have to be formulated in advance. A recently proposed test model is being discussed on the basis of 5 conceivable formulations of possible requirements. Essentially, they may be allotted to 2 types. One implies the comparison of the disinfection procedure to be tested as against an hypothetical procedure. The other makes use of the simple comparison with a concrete standard procedure and is preferable to the 1st possibility for several reasons. The presented, mathematical formulations of the structure describing the proposed model represent a 1st approximation in order to permit the comparison of disinfection effects on the hands under assistance of probabilistic methods and eliminating other effects inherent to a test method.
