It allows the determ

27、ination of the concentration at which the preservative completely prevents the development of infestation from egg-laying in fully impregnated wood of susceptible species. The species Lyctus brunneus is chosen because of its particular practical relevance and because it can be used easily in laborat

28、ory tests. The method can be used with other lyctid species, but the results may not be comparable with those obtained with Lyctus brunneus. The test specimens are enriched with a defined nutrient solution, before exposure to egg-laying, in order to ensure uniformity of nutrient quality of test spec

29、imens between different laboratories. This laboratory method provides one criterion by which the value of a product can be assessed. In making this assessment the methods by which the preservative may be applied should be taken into account. It is further recommended that results from this test shou

30、ld be supplemented by those from other appropriate tests, and above all by comparison with practical experience. When products which are very active at low concentrations are used it is very important to take suitable precautions to isolate and separate, as far as possible, operations involving chem

31、ical products, other products, treated wood, laboratory apparatus and clothing. Suitable precautions should include the use of separate rooms, areas within rooms, extraction facilities, conditioning chambers and special training for personnel. 1 Scope This Part of EN20 specifies a method for the det

32、ermination of the protective effectiveness or the toxic values of a wood preservative against infestation by Lyctus brunneus (Stephens) in wood which has been treated previously by full impregnation. This method is applicable to: water-insoluble chemicals which are being studied as active insecticid

33、es, or, organic formulations, as supplied or as prepared in the laboratory by dilution of concentrates. This method is not applicable to water-based perservatives. NOTEThis method may be used in conjuction with ageing procedures, which do not remove the added nutrient. 2 Normative reference This Eur

These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publication

36、 EN20, the following definitions apply. 3.1 representative sample a sample having its physical or chemical characteristics identical to the volumetric average characteristics of the total volume being sampled 3.2 supplier the sponsor of the test 4 Principle Depending on the test being carried out ei

37、ther: a set of test specimens of a susceptible wood species is impregnated with a nutrient solution and then impregnated with a solution of the preservative; or if toxic values are to be determined, several sets of test specimens of a susceptible wood species are impregnated with a nutrient solution

38、 and then impregnated with a series of solutions in which the concentration of preservative is ranged in a given progession. The treated test specimens are exposed to adult Lyctus brunneus and the resulting attack compared with that in untreated controls. If the preservative has been prepared in the

39、 laboratory by dilution of a concentrate or by dissolution of a solid, the resulting attack is also compared with that in solvent or diluent treated controls.EN20-2:1993 4 BSI 01-2000 5 Test materials and apparatus 5.1 Biological material Lyctus brunneus (Stephens), insects emerged from cultures not

40、 more than48h before use in the test, reared for at least two generations on non-enriched oak or no more than three generations on enriched oak. NOTEThe culturing of Lyctus brunneus requires care in order to obtain a regular supply of adults which have not already laid eggs. The culturing technique,

41、 which experience has shown to be suitable, is described inAnnex B. 5.2 Products and reagents 5.2.1 Paraffin wax, for sealing the relevant surfaces of specimens treated with solutions. NOTEParaffin wax with a setting point of52 C to54 C has been found to be suitable. 5.2.2 Filter paper, ordinary qua

42、lity medium-fast grade. 5.2.3 Paste, for securing filter paper. The paste shall be starch-free, non-toxic to Lyctus and insoluble in the product under test. NOTESodium carboxymethyl cellulose, food grade, has been found suitable. 5.2.4 Water, complying with grade3 of ISO3696. 5.2.5 Solvent or diluen

43、t, a volatile liquid that will dissolve or dilute the preservative but does not leave a residue in the wood at the end of the post-treatment conditioning period that has a toxic effect on the insects. CAUTION. Do not use benzene or other solvents which pose a health risk. 5.2.6 Peptone, prepared as

44、an enzymatic hydrolysate of meat. 5.2.7 D( + )glucose 5.2.8 Fine cloth, of cotton or linen, with a mesh aperture of less than0,3mm. 5.3 Apparatus 5.3.1 Culturing chamber, with air circulation, controlled at (26 1) C, and at relative humidity(75 5)%. 5.3.2 Conditioning chamber, well ventilated, contr

45、olled at (20 2) C and relative humidity(65 5)%. NOTEThe conditioning of specimens may be carried out in the laboratory work area (see5.3.4) provided that this has the conditions specified for the conditioning chamber (see5.3.2). 5.3.3 Drying chamber, well ventilated, controlled at(30 2) C. 5.3.4 Lab

46、oratory work area, well ventilated, where treatment of the test specimens is carried out. CAUTION. It is essential to follow safety procedures for handling flammable and toxic materials. Avoid excessive exposure of operators to solvents or their vapours. 5.3.5 Testing chamber, with conditions identi

47、cal to those of the culturing chamber (see5.3.1). 5.3.6 Treatment vessels, of material that does not react with the preservative under test; for example of glass for organic products. 5.3.7 Vacuum vessel(s), fitted with stopcocks. 5.3.8 Vacuum pump, fitted with a pressure gauge and capable of mainta

48、ining a pressure of700Pa 1) . 5.3.9 Weights, to provide ballast for the test specimens. The weights shall not react with any materials with which they come into contact during the test. 5.3.10 Safety equipment and protective clothing, appropriate for the test product and the test solvent, to ensure

49、the safety of the operator. 5.3.11 Test containers, suitable for holding the test specimens and of material resistant to the solvents used. NOTEJars of approximately60mm diameter and100mm height have been found to be suitable. 5.3.12 Drying vessels(s), capable of holding sets of five test specimens (7.4), provided with a close-fitting cover and containing supports that will give minimum contact with treated test specimens to be placed on them. The vessels and supports shall be of a material that does not re
