25、hgs ersedevrForeword ISO (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 f
26、or 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 Commission (IEC) on
27、 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 Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees a
28、re circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. 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
29、responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 7937 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee SC 9, Microbiology. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 7937:1997, EN 13401:1999), which has been technically revised. ENISO7937:
30、2004IS:7397 O4002(E) I SO 4002 All irthgs ersedevr vIntroduction Because of the large variety of food and feed products, this horizontal method may not be appropriate in every detail for certain products. In this case, different methods that are specific to these products may be used if absolutely n
31、ecessary for justified technical reasons. Nevertheless, every attempt should be made to apply this horizontal method as far as possible. When this International Standard is next reviewed, account will be taken of all information then available regarding the extent to which this horizontal method has
32、 been followed and the reasons for deviations from this method in the case 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 me
33、thod. It is hoped that when such standards are reviewed they will be changed to comply with this international Standard so that eventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons.
