Abstract
The bacteriologic results after terminal disinfection indicated that the reprocessing was carried out effectively overall. ATP results prior to disinfection indicated that manual cleaning might not have always been performed adequately and that this could have impaired the disinfection process. ATP provided a rapid means of assessing the efficacy of cleaning steps prior to terminal disinfection.
