This document specifies the minimum requirements for equipment and critical aspects of the test methods for best practice in laboratories performing basic examination of human semen collected by ejaculation. This document is applicable to the entire process of basic manual semen examination and also to sample preparation for Computer-Aided Sperm Analysis (CASA). This document does not apply to…

This document specifies a method for the quantification of twelve microcystin variants (microcystin-LR, -LA, -YR, -RR, -LY, -WR, -HtyR, -HilR, -LW, -LF, [Dha7]-microcystin-LR, and [Dha7]-microcystin-RR) in drinking water and freshwater samples between 0,05 µg/l to 1,6 µg/l. The method can be used to determine further microcystins, provided that analytical conditions for chromatography and mass…

This document specifies two methods for measuring the stiffness and one method for the determination of the flexibility of rubber and plastics hoses and tubing when they are bent to a specific radius at sub-ambient temperatures. Method A is suitable for non-collapsible rubber and plastics hoses and tubing with a bore of up to and including 25 mm. This method provides a means of measuring the…

This document describes a laboratory test method, using an IGT1-type or a prüfbau2-type printability tester, for the preparation of specimens to evaluate the absorption rate of an ink on a substrate in offset lithography by setting-off the printed surface to an unprinted surface. This method describes testing with an amount of ink simulating either single colour or multi-colour printing. The…

IEC TR 63250:2021 deals with the determination of repeatability and reproducibility of test methods used for assessing the performance characteristics of household and similar electrical appliances. It also provides guidance for carrying out round robin tests (RRT). It also specifies the uncertainty reporting of measurements of household and similar electrical appliances. It describes methods…

This document specifies a method, by measuring the amount of carbon dioxide evolved, for the determination of the degree of aerobic biodegradability of plastic materials, including those containing formulation additives. The test material is exposed in a synthetic medium under standardized laboratory conditions to an inoculum from activated sludge under aerobic conditions. The conditions used in…

This document specifies test methods for the measurement of the physical degradation of samples made with plastics materials when exposed to marine environmental matrices under aerobic conditions at laboratory scale. This document is not suitable for the assessment of degradation caused by heat (thermo-degradation) or light exposure (photo-degradation).

IEC 62053-41:2021 applies only to static watt-hour meters of accuracy classes 0,5 and 1 for the measurement of DC electrical energy in DC systems, and it applies to their type tests only. This document applies to electricity metering equipment designed to: • measure and control electrical energy on electrical networks with two poles where one of the poles is connected to earth and with voltage…

1.1 General This Standard specifies requirements for the packaging, collection, handling, storage, and on-site treatment and disposal of health care waste materials. 1.2 Application 1.2.1 General This Standard applies to health care and veterinary-related waste, and health care-related waste generated from traditional health care settings, public settings, and personal service settings,…

This document specifies a laboratory test procedure for determining the electrical resistance, in wet conditions, between the running rails provided by a fastening system fitted to a steel or concrete sleeper, bearer or element of ballastless track. It is also applicable to embedded rail. This test procedure applies to a complete fastening assembly. It is relevant to signalling currents, not to…
