Letheen Broth with Neutraliser & 1% Tween 80

Letheen Broth with Neutraliser & 1% Tween 80

Letheen Broth with Neutraliser and 1% Tween 80 is primarily intended for use in assessing the bactericidal activity of quaternary ammonium compounds and determining the phenol coefficient of cationic surfactants.
It can also be used in environmental testing, particularly in areas subjected to surface disinfection.
Lecithin and polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) inactivate surface disinfectants (lecithin neutralises quaternary ammonium compounds and Tween 80 neutralises phenols, formalin, hexachlorophene and in combination with the lecithin ethanol).
