The objective is to detect bacteriostatic activity on samples that are treated with antimicrobials and are capable of producing a zone of inhibition. Some test samples do not have a flat surface and are not easily tested using AATCC TM147. This method provides the advantage of testing odd-shaped and non-flat samples such as batting, fiberfill, foam, plastic, yarn, etc. by partially embedding them into molten agar prior to solidification. This provides the intimate contact required between the test sample and the seeded agar.
