What Is Disinfectant & Sanitizer Testing?
Disinfectant and sanitizer testing involves evaluating the effectiveness of chemical agents in eliminating or reducing harmful microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi on various surfaces. This type of testing ensures compliance with UAE regulations—including those set by the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) and the Emirates Authority for Standardization and Metrology (ESMA)—and verifies product efficacy for public health protection. It also supports hygiene validation and quality control across healthcare, food processing, and public facilities.
