1 Appendix 1 BPR Efficacy Working Group Document 1 (38) Claims Matrices These claims matrices are a set of tables which support the Biocidal s Regulation, Guidance on Efficacy Assessment for Types 1-4, Disinfectants, available in Volume II Efficacy Assessment Evaluation (Parts B+C) 1. The claims matrices are intended to cover those biocidal s covered under the scope of Type 1, 2, 3 4. The claims matrix is a tool for the applicant Competent Authorities. It is intended to capture the information that is needed in the authorisation dossier, to adequately describe typical combinations of s, formats of application of the s, as well as s. It also includes the claims made the requirements for testing these claims (in terms of stards) for a to be used in this way. The reader should note that the matrices are not exhaustive in terms of use patterns, scenarios test methods. The claims matrix must be used together with the relevant sections within the efficacy guidance document so as to provide both applicants Competent Authorities alike with clear direction as to the nature extent of the efficacy data required to support a claimed effect. The claims matrix acts as a guide to the information required when compiling an efficacy dataset for a PT1, PT2, PT3 or PT4 biocidal. NOTES to the reader: Each row (entry) within the matrices is not independent can be linked to other entries. These matrices only address biocidal claims made for these s. The claims matrix will be updated regularly according to the state-of-the-art.
