All the disinfectants have a small amount of phenol as it is having antimicrobial and antifungal properties. Which when used kills or inhibits the growth of the pathogens. The small concentration of the phenol in the disinfectant is known as the Phenol coefficient.
Phenol coefficient = dilution ratio of disinfectant ÷ dilution ratio of phenol
The phenol coefficient of any pathogen can be determined by phenol coefficient tests. There are two phenol coefficient tests used-
Rideal walker method and Chick Martin test.
