20、ISO 22964:2017ISO 22964:2017(E)ForewordISO (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 interes
21、ted in a subject 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 C
22、ommission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documen
23、ts should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible
24、for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the
25、 convenience of users and does not constitute an endorsement. For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISOs adherence to the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in t
26、he Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.This document was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/275, Food Analysis Horizontal methods, in collaboration with ISO Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food produc
27、ts, Subcommittee SC 9, Microbiology, in accordance with the agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).This first edition cancels and replaces ISO/TS 22964:2006, which has been technically revised with the following changes: the scope has been extended to Cronobacter s
28、pp. detection in food products for humans and feeding animals and environmental samples and the title changed accordingly; the enrichment broth, modified lauryl sulfate tryptose broth (mLST), has been replaced by Cronobacter selective broth (CSB); the isolation agar, Enterobacter sakazakii isolation
29、 agar (ESIA) has been replaced by chromogenic Cronobacter isolation (CCI) agar; several confirmation tests have been replaced by other tests according to Table 1 of this document.iv ISO 2017 All rights reservedBS EN ISO 22964:2017ISO 22964:2017(E)IntroductionThis document describes a horizontal meth
30、od for the detection of Cronobacter spp. in food, in animal feed and in environmental samples. The main changes, listed in the foreword, introduced in this document compared to ISO/TS 22964:2006 are considered as major (see ISO 174682).Because of the large variety of food and feed products, this hor
31、izontal method may not be appropriate in every detail for certain products. In this case, different methods, which are specific to these products, may be used if absolutely necessary for justified technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt should be made to apply this horizontal method as far as
32、 possible.When this document is next reviewed, account will be taken of all information then available regarding the extent to which this horizontal method has been followed and the reasons for deviations from this method in the case of particular products.The harmonization of test methods cannot be
33、 immediate and, for certain groups of products, International Standards and/or national standards may already exist that do not comply with this horizontal method. It is hoped that when such standards are reviewed they will be changed to comply with this document so that eventually the only remainin
34、g departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons.
