10、6654:2001(E)iv ISO 2001 All rights reservedForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISOmember bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technicalcommittees. Each member bo

International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, inliaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotec
12、hnicalCommission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.Publicat
13、ion as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject ofpatent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such
14、 patent rights.International Standard ISO 16654 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products,Subcommittee SC 9, Microbiology.Annex A forms a normative part of this International Standard.ISO 16654:2001(E) ISO 2001 All rights reserved vIntroductionBecause of the large variety of food
15、and feed products, this horizontal method may not be appropriate in everydetail for certain products. In this case, different methods specific to these products may be used if absolutelynecessary for justified technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt should be made to apply this horizontalmeth
16、od as far as possible.When this International Standard is next reviewed, account will be taken of all information then available regardingthe extent to which this horizontal method has been followed and the reasons for deviations from this method in thecase of particular products.The harmonization o
17、f test methods cannot be immediate, and for certain groups of products InternationalStandards and/or national standards may already exist that do not comply with this horizontal method. It is hopedthat when such standards are reviewed they will be changed to comply with this International Standard s
18、o thateventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-establishedtechnical reasons.INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 16654:2001(E) ISO 2001 All rights reserved 1Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs Horizontalmethod for the detection of Escheri
19、chia coli O157WARNING Escherichia coli O157 can cause severe life-threatening illness and has a low infective dose.Laboratory-acquired infections have been reported.In order to safeguard the health of laboratory personnel, it is essential that the whole of this method becarried out only by skilled p
20、ersonnel using good laboratory practices and preferably working in acontainment facility. Relevant national Health and Safety Regulations relating to this organism must beadhered to.Care must be taken in the disposal of all infectious materials.1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a horizont
21、al method for the detection of Escherichia coli serogroup O157.Subject to the limitations discussed in the introduction, this International Standard is applicable to productsintended for human consumption or for animal feeding stuffs.2 Normative referencesThe following normative documents contain pr
