| [ Summary ] | Endotoxin growth is possible where the bacillus exists in low pressure lines. It seems that there is a difference in the effectiveness of various disinfectants when the bacterial count decrease. It may be assumed that a bacterial index will show peracetic acid cleaners to be the most effective in combating biofilm. It is possible to verify the quality of dialysates when the axenic level of water used in their manufacture is maintained.
