Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN ISO 6644:2007-05 and DIN EN ISO 13690:2007-05 as follows: a) This standard includes both the requirements for the automatic sampling of cereals or of milled cereal products according to DIN EN ISO 6644 and the
7、 requirements for the sampling of static batches of cereals, pulses and milled products according to DIN EN ISO 13690. b) This standard is applicable to sampling for the determination of heterogeneously distributed contaminants, undesirable substances, and parameters usually homogeneously distribute
8、d like those used to assess quality or compliance with specification. It can be used to determine insects in a grain lot. c) The standard corresponds to the state of the art in sampling of cereals and cereal products.

Any analysis of the characteristics of a lot and any interpretation of the r
22、esults would prove futile if the sample were not representative of the lot from which it was taken. Sampling is a procedure which requires a great deal of care. It is strongly recommended that the task be entrusted to personnel who have been trained to use the appropriate equipment. DIN EN ISO 24333
23、:2010-04 EN ISO 24333:2009 (E) 4 1 Scope This International Standard specifies requirements for the dynamic or static sampling, by manual or mechanical means, of cereals and cereal products, for assessment of their quality and condition. It is applicable to sampling for the determination of heteroge
24、neously distributed contaminants, undesirable substances, and parameters usually homogeneously distributed like those used to assess quality or compliance with specification. It can be used to determine insects in a grain lot. NOTE 1 Other methods, e.g. trapping whilst grain is in storage, are more
25、suitable to assess pest populations. It is applicable to sampling for assessment of the quality and condition of lots of genetically modified organisms (GMO) but is inappropriate for the determination of the presence of adventitious genetically modified material in non-GM product. It is not applicab
26、le to seed grain. NOTE 2 The sampling of seed grain is governed by the rules established by the ISTA (International Seed Testing Association). NOTE 3 At the time of publication, there is no study to support the inclusion of the sampling of non-GM product in order to determine adventitious GM presenc
27、e within the scope of this International Standard. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 lot cereals identified quantity of material (cereal or cereal product) from which a sample can be taken and controlled to determine one (or sev

33、of the aggregate sample into laboratory sample(s). 3.2 Since the composition of the lots of cereals is rarely homogeneous and since certain contaminants are distributed in a non-uniform way, a sufficient number of increments shall be taken and carefully mixed to constitute an aggregate sample from w
34、hich it will subsequently be possible to obtain one or several laboratory sample(s). For non-flowing commodities (static), particular care shall be taken to ensure that these increments are distributed regularly throughout the grain mass, both at the surface and deep down. 3.3 Precautions shall be t
35、aken to ensure that all equipment used is clean, dry and free from foreign odours. The sampling procedures shall be carried out in such a way that the sampled material is protected from any source of accidental contamination caused by rain, dust, etc. 3.4 All the sampling procedures shall be carried
36、 out over a sufficiently short period of time to avoid any modification of the volatile substances in the samples. If one of the sampling stages takes a long time, the increments, individually or combined, shall be kept in sealed containers. DIN EN ISO 24333:2010-04 EN ISO 24333:2009 (E) 6 3.5 In th
37、e event of arbitration, samples shall be taken jointly by representatives of both the purchaser and the vendor, or by a third party nominated by common accord. 3.6 Precautions shall be taken to guarantee the integrity of all samples between the moment they are taken and the moment they are used in t
38、he laboratory. 4 Equipment and devices There are many different types of sampling equipment or devices. The most suitable equipment should be chosen taking into account the product to be sampled, the quantity required and the containers to be used. Annex A describes the general types of mechanical s
39、ampling devices used on flowing grain, and shows illustrations of examples of such devices. Annex B gives examples of instruments used to sample static products, and examples of instruments used to divide samples. Annex A and B are not exhaustive. Mechanical sampling devices shall have suitable poin
40、ts of access for the examination, cleaning, maintenance, and repair of all surfaces subject to wear. The points of access should be made of materials which do not generate an electrostatic charge. For maize, suction sampling devices should have a twin bore tube with an air supply. These suction samp
41、ling devices may also be used for other cereals. 5 Sampling 5.1 General Sampling in bulk concerns both the sampling of flowing cereals and the sampling of static cereals. In both cases, the sample can be taken using mechanical or manual means. Sampling from packed units (2.7) only concerns static sa
42、mpling and only uses manual means. The number of increments and the masses are given in Tables 1 and 2 for grain, in Tables 3 and 4 for milled and other cereal products and in Table 5 for milled and other cereal products in packed units. One laboratory sample (2.5) is required by lot or sub-lot of 1
43、 500 t maximum. EXAMPLE For a lot of 6 000 t, analyse at least four laboratory samples. NOTE The ranges of masses indicated in Tables 1 to 5 come from ISO/TR 292639. 5.2 Sampling of bulk products 5.2.1 General Whenever possible, sampling should be carried out when the products are flowing (e.g. duri
44、ng loading or unloading) so that all the constituent parts of the lot have the same probability of being sampled. When mechanical means are not available, implement a manual sampling plan. The methods (mechanical or manual) of taking samples from flowing lots shall be adapted to the speed at which t
45、he products are flowing (see Tables 1 and 3). For static grain, whichever method of sampling is used, the increments should be taken at regular intervals over the entire width and depth, up to 9 m. Sample lots of bulk grain which are more than 9 m deep when they are flowing. DIN EN ISO 24333:2010-04
46、 EN ISO 24333:2009 (E) 7 For lorries and trailers, it is recommended that samples be taken statically. In order for the aggregate sample to be representative, the number of increments shall be as high as possible. Tables 1 to 4 specify the minimum numbers of increments to be carried out in different
47、 situations. 5.2.2 Sampling of flowing bulk products 5.2.2.1 General. Since the characteristics and make-up of the lot can vary, the increments shall be taken from the whole lot, i.e. as long as the material is flowing. 5.2.2.2 Mechanical sampling. Adjust the equipment so that the size of the increm
48、ents or the frequency of sampling can be varied over a wide range. A series of fixed-size increments shall be taken at pre-determined intervals according to the flow and in such a way that each part of the lot has the same chance of entering the sampling device intake. EXAMPLE Crosscut sampling devi
49、ces meet this requirement irrespective of the type of flow. 5.2.2.3 Manual sampling. Take increments at regular intervals. 5.2.3 Sampling of static bulk products For static sampling, the means and methods of taking samples shall take into account the height of the product to be sampled. Up to a depth of 2 m, manual probes can be used. Up to a depth of 2,5 m, mechanical sampling devices can be used if the principle of sampling according to which they function does not create any segregation at the probe tube intake and does not cause damage t
