9、998 ii BSI 04-1999 Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a su
10、bject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (
11、IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75% of the member bodies casting a vote. International Sta
12、ndard ISO 936 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Agricultural food products, Subcommittee SC 6, Meat and meat products. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO936:1978), which has been technically revised. Annex A of this International Standard is for information
13、only. Descriptors: Agricultural products, animal products, food products, meat, meat products, tests, ash determination, combustion analysis.BS4401-1:1998 BSI 04-1999 1 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the total ash from all kinds of meat and meat produ
14、cts, including poultry. 2 Normative reference The following standard contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the edition indicated was valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agr
15、eements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the standard indicated below. Members of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. ISO 3696:1987, Water for analytical laboratory use Spe
16、cification and test methods. 3 Definition For the purposes of this International Standard, the following definition applies. 3.1 total ash from meat and meat products mass of the residue obtained after incineration at a temperature of (550 25)C under the operating conditions specified in this Intern
17、ational Standard, divided by the mass of the test portion NOTEThe mass fraction of ash is usually expressed as a percentage. 4 Principle A test portion is dried, carbonized and then incinerated at (550 25)C. After cooling, the mass of the residue is determined. 5 Reagents Use only reagents of recogn
18、ized analytical grade, unless otherwise specified. 5.1 Water, complying with at least grade 3 in accordance with ISO 3696. 5.2 Hydrogen peroxide, 30%. 6 Apparatus Usual laboratory apparatus and, in particular, the following. 6.1 Mechanical or electrical equipment capable of homogenizing the laborato
19、ry sample. This includes a high-speed rotational cutter, or a mincer fitted with a plate with apertures not exceeding 4,0mm in diameter. 6.2 Dish, flat-bottomed, made of porcelain, quartz or metal (e.g.nickel, platinum, stainless steel) or of other material unaffected by the conditions of the test,
20、with a diameter of at least 60 mm, and inclined walls of height at least 25mm. 6.3 Muffle furnace, electrically heated and equipped with a programmable time-temperature controller, and capable of being maintained at (550 25)C. 6.4 Desiccator, containing an efficient desiccant. 6.5 Analytical balance
21、, capable of weighing to the nearest 0,1mg. 6.6 Drying oven, capable of being maintained at(103 2)C (if the muffle furnace has no time-temperature controller). 6.7 Electric hot-plate or a gas flame (if the muffle furnace has no time-temperature controller). 7 Sampling Sampling is not part of the met
22、hod specified in this International Standard. A recommended sampling method is given in ISO3100-1 1. It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not been damaged or changed during transport or storage. Start from a representative sample of at least 200g
23、. Store the sample in such a way that deterioration and change in composition are prevented. 8 Preparation of test sample Homogenize the laboratory sample with the appropriate equipment (6.1). Take care that the temperature of the sample material does not rise above 25C. If a mincer is used, pass th
24、e sample at least twice through the equipment. Fill a suitable airtight container with the prepared sample. Close the container and store in such a way that deterioration and change in composition are prevented. Analyse the sample as soon as practicable, but always within 24h after homogenization. 9
25、 Procedure NOTEIf it is required to check whether the repeatability limit (see11.2) is met, carry out two single determinations in accordance with9.1 to9.3. 9.1 Test portion Heat the dish (6.2) for 20min in the muffle furnace(6.3) set at 550C. Allow the dish to cool in the desiccator (6.4) to room t
26、emperature and weigh (m 0 ) on the analytical balance (6.5) to the nearest 0,1mg.BS4401-1:1998 2 BSI 04-1999 Transfer 1,5g to 2g of the prepared test sample (seeclause8) to the dish. Spread it out evenly and without delay weigh (m 1 ) the dish again to the nearest 0,1mg. NOTEIf deemed appropriate by
27、 the analyst, having regard to the nature of the laboratory sample, up to 5g of the prepared test sample may be taken. This should be noted in the test report. If the muffle furnace is provided with a time-temperature controller, proceed in accordance with9.2. If not, proceed in accordance with9.3.
28、9.2 Determination applying muffle furnace with time-temperature controller Place the dish with its contents in the cool muffle furnace (6.3) and gradually raise the temperature of the furnace over 5h to 6h to (550 25)C. Continue the ashing at (550 25)C until the ash has a grey-white appearance. Remo
29、ve the dish from the muffle furnace and allow to cool in the desiccator (6.4) to room temperature. CAUTION Avoid loss of ash when transferring the dish with the ash from the furnace to the desiccator and from the desiccator to the analytical balance. Inspect the ash. If the ash is still black, treat
30、 it with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide (5.2) or water (5.1) and repeat the procedure described in this subclause. If the ash has a grey-white appearance, weigh on the analytical balance (6.5), to the nearest 0,1mg, the dish with its contents (m 2 ). Proceed in accordance with clause10. 9.3 Determ
31、ination applying muffle furnace without time-temperature controller Place the dish with its contents for 1h in the drying oven (6.6) set at 103C. Remove the dish from the oven and place it on an electric hot-plate or over a gas flame (6.7). Heat progressively until the substance carbonizes with the
32、evolution of smoke. Carefully continue carbonization until smoke evolution ceases. The sample material shall neither ignite nor burn with a flame. Transfer the dish to the cool muffle furnace (6.3) and raise the temperature to (550 25)C. After 4h, remove the dish with its contents from the muffle fu
33、rnace and allow to cool in the desiccator(6.4) to room temperature. CAUTION Avoid loss of ash when transferring the dish with the ash from the furnace to the desiccator and from the desiccator to the analytical balance. Inspect the ash. If the ash is still black, treat it with a few drops of hydroge
34、n peroxide (5.2) or water (5.1) and repeat the procedure described in this subclause. If the ash has a grey-white appearance, weigh on the analytical balance (6.5), to the nearest 0,1mg, the dish with its contents (m 2 ). 10 Calculation Calculate the mass fraction of ash of the test sample using the
