3 Terms and Definitions

The following terms and definitions are applicable to this document. 3.1 Control Fabric Control fabric refers to a fabric used to validate the growth conditions of test fungus. NOTE: the control fabric can be taken from textiles of the same texture as the specimen but without antifungal treatment. If the above-mentioned specimen cannot be obtained, use 100% cotton fabric without fluorescent brighteners or other finish as the control fabric; before use, in accordance with the stipulations of GB/T 8629, at 60 C, without adding any detergents or brighteners, perform cyclic washing for 10 times; for each cycle, wash for 10 min and rinse twice for a total of 5 min. 3.2 Antifungal Agent Antifungal agent refers to an adjuvant that inhibits or slows down the growth of fungus or reduces the number of fungus. 3.3 Antifungal Treatment Antifungal treatment refers to a treatment that inhibits or mitigates the growth of fungus or reduces the number of fungus. 3.4 Spore Suspension Spore suspension refers to a liquid, in which fungal spores are uniformly dispersed in sterilized water containing an anionic surfactant. 3.5 Adenosine Triphosphate; ATP Adenosine triphosphate refers to a multi-functional nucleotide present in living fungi. 3.6 Antifungal Activity Antifungal activity refers to an activity of inhibiting or slowing down the growth of fungus, which is characterized by the difference between the growth values expressed by the logarithm of ATP in the control fabric and the test specimen. 3.7 Luminescence Method Luminescence method refers to a method of determining the amount of ATP in fungal cells. NOTE: the result is expressed in moles of ATP.

4 Principle

Respectively use the spore suspension of the test fungus to inoculate the test specimen and the control fabric. In addition, under the condition of 25 C, incubate it for 42 h.
