Abstract
A microbiological test has been developed to assess the efficiency of methods and products for cleaning surfaces on fishing boats. Dirt coll ected on fishing boats is inoculated with spores of Bacillus stearothe rmophilus var. calidolactis as tracer, and spread and fixed on test su rfaces. After cleaning, residual dirt is estimated by enumeration of c olonies grown from the spores on the treated surface. This test was us ed to compare the efficiency of six cleaning products.
