Abstract

The purpose of this article was to monitor the surfaces and air microorganisms (Colony Forming Unit, Coliform bacteria and moulds) before and after disinfection on the monitored surfaces in the area under study, in order to compare the effectiveness of disinfectants, as well as application methods. From the analyzed occurrence of the surface and air microorganisms before and after application of disinfectants, differences between compared disinfectants were found. Ultimately, all assessed disinfectants were effective but Pedox PAA/50 + Chloramine T) in the form of an aerosol was more effective, as compared to P3-topax 66, mainly in disposal of the CFU microorganisms and moulds from the surfaces and CFU from the air of the monitored area.
