33、7 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 interested in a subject for which a
34、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 Commission (IEC) on all matter
35、s 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 documents should be noted. This docum
36、ent 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 for identifying any or all
37、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 convenience of users an

In this case, different methods which are specific to these p
41、roducts can be used if absolutely necessary for justified technical reasons.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
42、of particular products.The harmonization of test methods cannot be 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
43、 to comply with this document so that eventually, the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons.This document defines the general rules for the preparation of samples, initial suspensions and subsequent dilutions for microbio
44、logical examination. The remaining parts of ISO 6887 give specific rules for the preparation of samples and initial suspensions, each covering the variety of food and feed products and environmental samples to which ISO 6887 applies.For a number of products, it is necessary to take special precautio
45、ns, especially when preparing the initial suspension, because of the physical state of the product (such as dry products, highly viscous products) or the presence of inhibitory substances (such as spices, high salt content) or the acidity, etc. These are covered in general terms in this document.Any
46、 special diluents or practices required for particular products or microorganisms in specific standard methods take priority over the general rules listed in the ISO 6887 series. These can include the following: specific rehydration procedures for foods of low water activity to minimize osmotic shoc
47、k; the use of adequate temperatures to aid suspension of cocoa, gelatine, milk powder, etc.; resuscitation procedures for the improved recovery of stressed microorganisms resulting from food processing and storage; homogenization procedures and duration specific to certain products (e.g. cereals) an
48、d/or to certain determinations (e.g. yeasts and moulds).EN ISO 6887-1:2017 (E) 5 DIN EN ISO 6887-1:2017-07 WARNING The use of this document may involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and health prac
49、tices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations before use.1 ScopeThis document defines general rules for the aerobic preparation of the initial suspension and of dilutions for microbiological examinations of products intended for human or animal consumption.This document is applicable to the general case and other parts apply to specific groups of products as mentioned in the foreword.
