Abstract

J. H. TAYLOR AND J. T. HOLAH. 1996. A range of floor and wall materials suitable for use in the food industry were selected for comparative bacterial cleanability tests. A standard cleaning regime was carried out on samples after biofilm development of Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (CRA 296). Cleanability was measured as the log reduction in bacterial numbers. The results for the wall materials showed that there were no statistical differences, whilst those for the floor materials were more variable. The grouted joints and texture did not compromise the cleanabilities of tiled surfaces.
