A passing result for this method is >2 log
reduction, indicating at least 99% of the bacteria on the
surface were killed over the course of 24 h.
The
surface of both the agar and the sample was inoculated
by spraying with the aforementioned spore suspension.
The agar was rinsed from the surface, and the samples
were reexamined for the presence of staining.
