Antibacterial materials can be divided into three categories, inorganic, natural organic and synthetic organic.A series of biological performance testing are required for the new antibacterial materials, including antibacterial activity,biocompatibility and material properties. In this paper, the testing methods for their biological performance were reviewed.
