23、 stuffs, including pet foods.NOTE 1 The guidelines mostly derive from those developed by AAFCO (see Reference 7).The guidelines are overruled by special instructions and regulations for sample preparation demanded by specific analysis methods.NOTE 2 Such analysis methods are developed by ISO and CEN
24、.NOTE 3 This International Standard does not include special guidelines for sample preparation for microbiological analysis of microorganisms like yeasts, bacteria and moulds. Nonetheless, for microorganisms which are used as feed additives (probiotics), some important aspects of sample preparation
25、are addressed.2 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.2.1 Definitions concerning “sample”2.1.1lotquantity of material that is assumed to be of the same production process and represented by specified sampling rulesNOTE For the purposes of t
26、his International Standard, the rules are those of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 152/2009.32.1.2laboratory samplesample as prepared (from the lot) for sending to the laboratory and intended for inspection or testing2.1.3test samplesubsample or sample prepared from the laboratory sample and from whi

28、 size reduction is doneNOTE If, for example, mycotoxin or genetically modified organism analyses are done on the whole laboratory sample, then the reserve sample is also reduced to the corresponding particle sizes. The reserve sample should be stored under conditions maintaining integrity.4EN ISO 64
