Water quality — Biochemical and physiological measurements on fish — Part 2: Determination of ethoxy...
ISO/TS 23893-2:2007 specifies a method for measuring the ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD) enzyme activity on a post-mitochondrial fraction of fish liver homogenate (subcellular fraction in which the EROD activity is located) employing a cell or microplate fluorimetric method.
It applies to fish that are sampled in their natural environment (fresh water or salt water) or exposed to substances…
Rubber, vulcanized or thermoplastic — Determination of stress relaxation in compression at ambient a...
ISO 3384:2005 specifies two methods for determining the decrease in counterforce exerted by a test piece of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubber which has been compressed to a constant deformation and maintained thus at a predetermined test temperature.
Two forms of test piece are permitted: cylindrical test pieces and rings. The use of ring test pieces is particularly suitable for the…
Plastics — Determination of the aerobic biodegradation of plastic materials exposed to seawater usin...
This document describes a laboratory test method to determine the aerobic biodegradation of plastic materials exposed to seawater using accelerated conditions.
Furthermore, this document describes the general requirements of the apparatus and the procedures for using this test method. The biodegradation is determined by measuring the oxygen demand in a closed respirometer or by measuring the CO2…
Electronic displays - Part 2-7 : Measurements of optical characteristics - Tiled displays
IEC 62977-2-7:2024 specifies standard measuring conditions and measurement methods for determining the optical characteristics of tiled displays which consist of multiple display modules in order to form one screen. These methods apply to emissive and transmissive direct view flat displays that render real 2D images with all modules lying in the same plane. The methods are applicable in…
Foodstuffs — Methods of analysis for the detection of genetically modified organisms and derived pro...
ISO 24276:2006 specifies how to use the standards for sampling strategies (EN/TS 21568), nucleic acid extraction (ISO 21571), qualitative nucleic acid analysis (ISO 21569) and quantitative nucleic acid analysis (ISO 21570), and their relationship in the analysis of genetically modified organisms in foodstuffs, and contains general definitions, requirements and guidelines for laboratory set-up,…
Microbiology of the food chain — Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for the detection of ...
This standard would provide general requirements and guidance for the development and application of LAMP-based methods for the detection of microorganisms and associated genetic markers sampled along the food chain (e.g., ingredients, human food, animal food, and the production environment), and includes sample preparation, isothermal amplification, signal detection, data interpretation, and…
Nanotechnologies - Aquatic toxicity assessment of manufactured nanomaterials in saltwater lakes usin...
ISO/TS 20787:2017 specifies a test method, aiming to maximize repeatability and reliability of testing, to determine whether MNMs are toxic to aquatic organisms, specifically Artemia sp. nauplius.
ISO/TS 20787:2017 is intended to be used by ecotoxicological laboratories that are capable in the hatching and culturing of Artemia sp. and the evaluation of toxicity of nanomaterials using Artemia sp…
Corrosion of metals and alloys — Corrosivity of atmospheres — Measurement of environmental parameter...
ISO 9225:2012 specifies methods for measuring the parameters needed for corrosivity estimation used for classification of the corrosivity of atmospheres in ISO 9223.
ISO 9225:2012 specifies methods for the measurement of environmental parameters for normative corrosivity estimation based on calculated first-year corrosion rates of standard metals, and informative corrosivity estimation based on…
Test Method for Determining the Anaerobic Biodegradability of Plastic Materials
1.1
This Standard specifies the laboratory test method condition for determining
the anaerobic biodegradability of plastic materials on exposure to primary
anaerobic digestor sludge obtained from the treatment of primary clarifier
sludge at a municipal waste water treatment plant.
The degree and rate of anaerobic biodegradability of a plastic material in the
environment determines to what…
Acoustics — Requirements for the performance and calibration of reference sound sources used for the...
ISO 6926:2016 specifies the acoustical performance requirements for reference sound sources:
- temporal steadiness (stability) of the sound power output;
- spectral characteristics;
- directivity.
Temporal steadiness is defined in terms of the standard deviation of repeatability (see 5.2). The spectral characteristics can be verified in either a hemi-anechoic room or a…
