The work of preparing International Standards is normally carr
6、ied out through ISOtechnical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has beenestablished has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental andnon-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO
7、 collaborates closely with the InternationalElectrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.The main task of technical committees is to prepare International
8、Standards. Draft International Standardsadopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.

48、 of ginger should be stored in covered premises, well protected from sun, rain andexcessive heat.B.2 The store room should be dry, free from objectionable odours, and proofed against entry of insects andvermin. The ventilation should be controlled so as to give good ventilation under dry conditions
49、and to be fullyclosed under damp conditions. In a storage warehouse, suitable facilities should be available for fumigation.B.3 The containers should be so handled and transported that they are protected from rain, from the sun orother source of excessive heat, from objectionable odours and from cross-infestation, especially in the holds ofships.BS ISO 1003:20089Bibliography1 JOINT FAO/WHO FOOD STANDARDS PROGRAMME.
