Public Meeting 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. EPA invites 

interested stakeholders to participate in 

a laboratory-based technical workshop 

that will focus on the conduct of the 

Association of Official Analytical 

Chemists (AOAC) Use-dilution method 

(UDM) and the status and 

implementation of a new test method, 

the Organization for Economic 

Cooperation and Development (OECD) 

Quantitative Method for Evaluating 

Bactericidal Activity of Microbicides 

Used on Hard, Non-Porous Surfaces. 

The workshop is being held to discuss 

current and proposed revisions mainly 

associated with the Staphyloccocus 

aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 

methodologies. The goals of the 

workshop are to provide a 

comprehensive review and discussion 

period on the status of the UDM and 

OEDC methods integrated with handson laboratory demonstrations. An 

overview of various data sets and 

collaborative studies will be used to 

supplement the discussions which will 

be held at the EPA Environmental 

Science Center Microbiology 

Laboratory. 

DATES: The meeting will be held on 

November 15 and 16, 2011 from 8:30

II. Background 

The AOAC Use-dilution method 

(UDM), is currently accepted by EPA for 

regulatory purposes to measure the 

efficacy of liquid hospital disinfectants 

against Staphyloccocus aureus, 

Pseudomonas aeruginosa and 

Salmonella enterica on hard non-porous 

surfaces. In addition to using the 

method for registration purposes, the 

method is currently in use as part of the 

post market Antimicrobials Testing 

Program. The workshop is being held to 

discuss current and proposed revisions 

mainly associated with the S. aureus 

and P. aeruginosa methodologies, which 

are designed to further optimize and 

standardize the UDM, and to discuss the 

data associated with these revisions. At 

the workshop, the UDM method will be 

discussed along with the status and 

implementation of a new test method, 

the OECD Quantitative Method for 

Evaluating Bactericidal Activity of 

Microbicides Used on Hard, Non-Porous 


sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
63616 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 198 / Thursday, October 13, 2011 / Notices 

Surfaces (OECD method), will be 

discussed. The OECD Method recently 

underwent a multi-laboratory ring trial 

and the EPA is interested in adopting 

the OECD method for regulatory 

purposes. The method is based on test 

guidelines from the (OECD), an 

intergovernmental organization 

consisting of 30 industrialized countries 

in Europe, North America, Asia and the 

Pacific. Through its Environment 

Program, OECD works to help countries 

manage the risks of chemicals as 

efficiently and effectively as possible. 

This is a technical meeting for 

individuals with laboratory expertise in 

conducting the UDM and OECD 

procedures or who plan to conduct 

these methods in the future. Participants 

must be knowledgeable of the safety 

practices and procedures for working in 

a Biosafety Level II laboratory 

environment in order to participate in 

the laboratory demonstrations. The 

detailed agenda for the workshop is 

available in the docket. The Agency is 

encouraging participation from a crosssection of affected parties including 

industry, state and federal partners, and 

testing laboratories. Due to space 

constraints in the laboratory, attendance 

will be limited to 30 total participants, 

with a maximum of 20 participating in 

the laboratory exercises. 

III. How can I request to participate in 

this meeting? 

You may submit a request to
