This document specifies safety requirements for exercise bicycles with a fixed wheel or without freewheel that have an inertia of >0,6 kg·m2. The requirements are in addition to the general safety requirements of ISO 20957-1, with which ISO 20957-10 is intended to be read in conjunction. Any attachment provided with the exercise bicycle with a fixed wheel or without freewheel for the performance of additional exercises is subject to the requirements of ISO 20957-1.

 

This document specifies general criteria to be applied in the determination of bacterial endotoxins on or in health care products, components or raw materials using bacterial endotoxins test (BET) methods, using amebocyte lysate reagents. This document is not applicable to the evaluation of pyrogens other than bacterial endotoxins. Other endotoxin detection methodologies are not included. This document does not address setting specific endotoxin limit specifications.

 

This document specifies requirements for the respiratory tubing and connectors used to convey respirable gases to a patient in the healthcare and homecare environments and provide a safe connection between the gas supply device and the patient interface. Respiratory tubing and connectors are mainly used for delivery of oxygen but can also be used for respirable air or oxygen/air mixtures and breathable medicinal gas mixtures such as oxygen/nitrous oxide or oxygen/helium mixtures. This document also specifies requirements for respiratory therapy extension tubing. NOTE 1        The gas supply devices referred to in this document do not include anaesthetic machines/workstations and ventilators. NOTE 2        This document does not cover breathing tubes for breathing systems. These are specified in ISO 5367. This document is written following the format of ISO 18190, General standard for airways and related equipment. The requirements in this device-specific standard take precedence over any conflicting requirements in the General standard

 

This document specifies a method for the enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in soil improvers and growing media. This document is applicable to material in solid form (including pre-shaped growing media) and liquid form. This document is applicable to fertilizing product blends, where a blend is a mix of two or more fertilizing 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 comprise the highest percentage in the blend by mass or volume, or in the case of liquid form by dry mass. If soil improvers and/or growing media do not comprise the highest percentage in the blend, the European Standard for the highest percentage in the blend applies. In case a blend is composed of fertilising products in equal quantity, the user of the standard decides which standard to apply. NOTE 1 A soil improver or a growing medium 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). Strains of E. coli which do not grow at 44 °C ± 1 °C and, in particular, those that are ß-D-glucuronidase-negative, such as E. coli O157, will not be detected. Some strains of Shigella spp. and Salmonella spp. within the family Enterobacteriaceae can also show ß-D-glucuronidase activity at 44 °C ± 1 °C. NOTE 2 This method has been validated in an interlaboratory study with specific products that were present on the market during the study (Annex C).

 

This document specifies a method for the enumeration of enterococci in soil improvers and growing media. This document is applicable to material in solid form (including pre-shaped growing media) and liquid form. This document is applicable to 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 comprise the highest percentage in the blend by mass or volume, or in the case of liquid form by dry mass. If soil improvers and/or growing media do not comprise the highest percentage in the blend, the European Standard for the highest percentage in the blend applies. In case a blend is composed of fertilising products in equal quantity, the user of the standard decides which standard to apply. NOTE 1 A soil improver or a growing medium 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). NOTE 2 This method has been validated in an interlaboratory study with specific products that were present on the market during the study (Annex C).

 

This document specifies a method for the detection of Salmonella spp. in soil improvers and growing media. It is applicable to material in solid form (including pre-shaped growing media) and liquid form. This document is applicable to fertilizing product blends, where a blend is a mix of two or more fertilizing 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 comprise the highest percentage in the blend by mass or volume, or in the case of liquid form by dry mass. If soil improvers and/or growing media do not comprise the highest percentage in the blend, the European Standard for the highest percentage in the blend applies. In case a blend is composed of fertilising products in equal quantity, the user of the standard decides which standard to apply. Most of the Salmonella serovars are detected with the method described in this document. For the detection of some specific Salmonella serovars (e.g. Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi), additional cultivation steps can be necessary. NOTE 1 A soil improver or a growing medium 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). NOTE 2 This method has been validated in an interlaboratory study with specific products that were present on the market during the study (Annex C).

 

This document specifies the general characteristics, the conditions for qualification, acceptance and quality assurance, as well as the test programs and groups for threaded ring coupling circular connectors, fire resistant, intended for use in a temperature range from -65 °C to 175 °C continuous or 200 °C continuous according to the classes.

 

This document specifies the general requirements for the in vitro amplification of nucleic acid sequences (DNA or RNA). This includes polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods like quantitative PCR, qualitative PCR, reverse transcription-PCR and digital PCR. The minimum requirements laid down in this document are intended to ensure that comparable and reproducible results are obtained in different organizations. It covers quality assurance aspects to be considered when working with PCR-based methods in a laboratory as well as validation and verification. In addition to laboratory PCR-based methods, this document is also applicable to on-site PCR-based methods. This document is applicable to PCR-based methods used for the analysis of microorganisms and viruses in different water matrices, including but not limited to: — drinking water; — groundwater; — pool water; — process water; — surface water; — wastewater. This document is applicable to the detection and quantification of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) of microorganisms by PCR-based methods in water such as bacteria, yeasts, fungi but also parasites such as Cryptosporidium, Giardia, amoebas and multicellular organisms. In addition, this document is applicable to the detection and quantification of nucleic acids from viruses in water by PCR-based methods. NOTE In the context of this document, viruses are considered to be microorganisms. Clauses in this document can also specifically apply to viruses and not to other types of microorganisms. In these clauses, viruses are mentioned separately.

 

This part of ISO 27327 establishes uniform methods for laboratory testing of air curtain units to determine aerodynamic performance in terms of airflow rate, outlet air velocity uniformity, power consumption and air velocity projection, for rating or guarantee purposes. This part of ISO 27327 is not applicable to the specification of test procedures to be used for design, production or field testing.
