Abstract
The efficacy of N-duopropenide, a new generation disinfectant composed of a mixture of quaternary ammonium iodides, against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotype 1 was studied. The organisms were suspended in both saline and bovine serum and tested in vitro in suspension and carrier tests. A total of six concentrations (0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 2.5% and 5%) and six contact times for each (15", 30", l', 3', 5' and 10') were studied. The disinfectant was more effective in the suspension test than in the carrier test, and when organisms were suspended in saline than in organic matter. Even in the most disadvantage conditions (carrier test with bovine serum) such a short contact time as 15 seconds was already highly effective for inactivating A. pleuropneumoniae.
