SFS Suomen Standardit

 

This International Standard describes the procedure to qualitatively detect genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and derived products by analysing the nucleic acids extracted from the sample under study. The main focus is on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based amplification methods. It gives general requirements for the specific detection and identification of target nucleic acid sequences (DNA) and for the confirmation of the identity of the amplified DNA sequence. Guidelines, minimum requirements and performance criteria laid down in this International Standard are intended to ensure that comparable, accurate and reproducible results are obtained in different laboratories. This International Standard has been established for food matrices, but could also be applied to other matrices (e.g. feed and plant samples from the environment). Specific examples of methods are provided in Annexes A to D.

 

This standard specifies the requirements for the training of citizen science divers. The standard shall have a broad scope so as to be applicable to all disciplines of science. This document is applicable to all recreational divers independent of any scientific background (unlike the ISO 8804 standard series which a primarily directed at the scientific diving community). A citizen science diver is competent in basic underwater scientific methodologies and protocols and shall be able to assist in scientific diving activities. This standard will specify competencies, prerequisites for training, Introductory information, Required theoretical knowledge, Required practical skills, Practical training parameters and Evaluation criteria for training systems aimed at training citizen science divers.

 

The intent of ISO 10318-2:2015 is to define property symbols, graphical symbols, and pictograms used in EN and ISO geosynthetics standards. Definitions of particular or specific symbols and pictograms terms not included in this this part of ISO 10318 can be found in the International Standards describing appropriate test methods.

 

ISO 16103:2005 specifies the requirements and test methods for the production of recycled plastics materials to be used for packagings for the transport of dangerous goods. This includes guidance on the quality assurance programme.

 

This document specifies a method for the digestion of soil improvers and growing media using an aqua regia digestion. Materials containing more than about 28 % (m/m) organic matter will require treatment with additional nitric acid. With high solute concentrations in extract solutions, spectral interferences and background enhancement should be expected.

 

This document specifies different methods for quantitative determination of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) (see Table 1) in compost or digestate, using GC-MS, GCMS/MS or HPLC UV DAD/FLD covering a wide range of PAH contamination levels (see Table 1). When using fluorescence detection, acenaphthylene cannot be measured. Table 1 — Target analytes of this document [...table not reproduced...] The limit of detection depends on the determinants, the equipment used, the quality of chemicals used for the extraction of the sample and the clean-up of the extract. This document contains decision tables based on the properties of the sample and the extraction and clean-up procedure to be used. The method may be applied to the analysis of other PAH not specified in the scope, provided suitability is proven by proper in-house validation experiments.

 

This document specifies a method for the extraction and determination of phosphonates (P-PO3) in growing media and soil improvers using ion chromatography and conductivity detection (IC-CD). This document is applicable to the fertilizing product blends where a blend is a mix of two or more fertilising products belonging to the categories of fertilizers, liming material, soil improvers, growing media, inhibitors and plant biostimulants, and where soil improvers and/or growing media are the components with the highest percentage in the blend by mass or volume, or in the case of products in liquid form by dry mass. If the soil improvers and/or growing media are not the components with the highest percentage in the blend, the document relevant to the component with the highest percentage in the blend applies. In case a blend is composed of fertilising products mixed in equal quantities, the user of the document decides which standard to apply. NOTE A soil improver consists of a single bulky (volume-building) component or a mix of bulky (volume-building) components (for example peat, wood fibres, coconut coir, compost, expanded perlite).

 

This document specifies a method for the determination of the dimensions, volume and the bulk density of pre-shaped and non pre-shaped plugs.

 

This document specifies a method for the determination of the chloride (Cl-) content by potentiometric titration. This method is applicable to growing media and soil improvers. NOTE It is possible to use other analytical techniques (e.g. ion chromatography, discrete analyser, continuous flow analyser); in this case a validation is carried out by the laboratory for the procedure and data generated.

 

This document specifies the dimensions, linear resistance, mechanical characteristics, construction and mass of lightweight conductors, normal and tight tolerances, in copper or copper alloy for electrical cables for aerospace applications. It applies to stranded conductors, with a nominal cross-sectional area of 0,15 mm2 to 14 mm2 inclusive. The conductors for thermocouple extension and fire-resistant cables are not covered by this document.

 

 

 

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of nitrogen in soil improvers and growing media. The dry combustion method was developed originally as a manual method by Dumas. Its application is improved greatly due to the use of modern automated equipment and is applicable to all forms of nitrogen. NOTE The requirements of the standard may differ from the national legal requirements for the declaration of the products concerned.

 

This European Standard specifies an extraction method for the routine determination of calcium chloride/DTPA (CAT-method) extractable nutrients and elements (as listed in annex B) in soil improvers or growing media. The method is not applicable to liming materials and preformed materials such as mineral wool slabs and foam slabs. NOTE The requirements of the standard may differ from the national legal requirements for the declaration of the products concerned.

 

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of nitrogen in soil improvers and growing media. The Kjeldahl method determines ammonium-N, nitrate-N, nitrite-N and organic N content of soil improvers and growing media. Nitrogen in N-N-linkages, N-O-linkages and some heterocyclics (especially pyridine) is only partially determined. [6], [7], [8] The method is not applicable to liming materials and preformed materials such as mineral wool slabs and foam slabs. NOTE The requirements of the standard may differ from the national legal requirements for the declaration of the products concerned.

This document specifies a method for the determination of elements in soil improvers or growing media extracts using inductively coupled plasmaatomic emission spectrometry (ICPAES) NOTE 1 Alternatively, other suitable analytical techniques, e.g. inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) or atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS), can be used for the measurement if the user proves that the method gives the same results. This method is applicable to aqua regia extracts prepared according to EN 13650:— 1. NOTE 2 The method may be used for the determination of other elements, provided the user has verified the applicability.

 

1.1 In Scope The EN 9300-5xx series specifies the methods for long term archiving and retrieval of MBSE data represented as digital models. The characterization of models that are considered in scope of this document and the MBSE process use cases include: - product or system design requirements models; - functional architecture models; - logical architecture models (system structure, arrangement, connectivity, software allocations and controls, and part relationships); - numerically-based system analysis and simulation models, generally regulated 1D control loop models featuring system components and transport elements (tubing, piping, signalling, software); - verification and validation of requirements; - protocol dependent signal or communication networks; - multi-model linking and system parametric models; - system trade study models; - the solution architecture models and data that are needed to implement the system and generate system engineering data for downstream designs. 1.2 Out of Scope The EN 9300-5xx series does not address the original product model design process, or a specific configuration management process for the LOTAR archive. It does not address models depicting part specific technical data (physical materials or detail part standards). It is assumed that these archiving processes are within the scope of other parts of the EN 9300 series such as the 1xx series for CAD, the 2xx series for Product Data Management (PDM) data, or by applying existing alternative industry standards, or existing company business procedures. Typical models and capabilities considered out of scope of this document include: - physical spatial models or composite structures (as described by other LOTAR Parts); - Finite Element and CFD models (as described by other LOTAR Parts); - Product Data Management models (as described by other LOTAR Parts); - electrical circuit boards, or physical wiring parts or systems (described by other LOTAR Parts or standards); - the software development process and software models that are outside of the context of software parts, behaviours, or functions that represent software code within a model; - how to preserve property and access rights, or government acquisition-regulatory controls; - new standards, or major revisions to existing MBSE standards that were not available or applicable prior to the publication of this document.
