Sterilization of health care products — Common requirements for sterilizers for terminal sterilizati...
This document specifies the common requirements for sterilizers used for terminal sterilization of medical devices in health care facilities. This document covers sterilizers that operate with a variety of sterilizing agents (alone or in combination) within a sealed vessel at different temperatures, above, at, or below atmospheric pressure.
This document provides high-level requirements and…
Microbiology of the food chain — Method validation — Part 3: Protocol for the verification of refere...
This document specifies the protocol for the verification of reference methods and validated alternative methods for implementation in the user laboratory.
This document is applicable to the verification of methods used for the analysis (detection and/or quantification), confirmation and typing of microorganisms in:
— products intended for human consumption;
— products intended for animal…
Paints and varnishes — Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources — Part 3: Fluorescent UV lamp...
This document specifies methods for exposing coatings to fluorescent UV lamps, heat and water in apparatus designed to reproduce the weathering effects that occur when materials are exposed in actual end-use environments to daylight, or to daylight through window glass.
The coatings are exposed to different types of fluorescent UV lamps under controlled environmental conditions (temperature,…
This document describes and classifies a range of laboratory ignition sources for use in fire tests on plastics and products consisting substantially of plastics. These sources vary in intensity and area of impingement. They are suitable for use to simulate the initial thermal abuse to which plastics are potentially exposed in certain actual fire risk scenarios.
This compilation of standard…
Acoustics — Rating of sound insulation in buildings and of building elements — Part 1: Airborne soun...
This document
a) defines single-number quantities for airborne sound insulation in buildings and of building elements such as walls, floors, doors, and windows,
b) takes into consideration the different sound level spectra of various noise sources such as noise sources inside a building and traffic outside a building, and
c) gives rules for determining these quantities from the results of…
In vitro diagnostic test systems — Nucleic acid amplification-based examination procedures for detec...
This document describes the particular clinical laboratory practice requirements to ensure the quality of detection, identification and quantification of microbial pathogens using nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT).
It is intended for use by laboratories that develop, and/or implement and use, or perform NAAT for medical, research or health-related purposes. This document does not apply to…
Ships and marine technology — Bioassay methods for screening anti-fouling paints — Part 3: Mussels
This document specifies a laboratory test method for screening anti-fouling paints in a flow-through system using mussels as the test organism. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 21716-1, which specifies the general requirements. The purpose of the test is to determine if there is a difference in mussel settlement on painted test panels compared with mussel settlement on inert non-…
Ships and marine technology — Bioassay methods for screening anti-fouling paints — Part 2: Barnacles
This document specifies a laboratory test method for screening anti-fouling paints in a flow-through system using barnacle cyprid larvae as the test organism. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 21716-1, which specifies the general requirements. The purpose of the test is to determine if there is a difference in barnacle settlement on painted test panels compared with barnacle…
Ships and marine technology — Bioassay methods for screening anti-fouling paints — Part 1: General r...
This document specifies general requirements and common specifications for preparing and aging panels coated with anti-fouling paint to perform laboratory bioassay screening tests against specified organisms. Such tests are given in the other parts of the ISO 21716 series, with which this document is intended to be used.
This document is applicable to all anti-fouling paints that prevent or deter…
