The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS
20、O technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for 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 c
21、losely with the International Electrotechnical 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 Standards. D
22、raft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are 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 do
23、cument may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 16212 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 217, Comestics. BS EN ISO16212:2011EN ISO16212:2011 (E)INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 201 1Cosmetics Microbiology Enumeration
24、of yeast and mould 1 Scope This International Standard gives general guidelines for enumeration of yeast and mould present in cosmetics by counting the colonies on selective agar medium after aerobic incubation. In order to ensure product quality and safety for consumers, it is advisable to perform
25、an appropriate microbiological risk analysis so as to determine the types of cosmetic products to which this International Standard is applicable. Products considered to present a low microbiological risk include those with low water activity, hydro-alcoholic products, products with extreme pH value
26、s, etc. Because of the large variety of cosmetic products within this field of application, this method might not be suited to some products in every detail (e.g. certain water-immiscible products). Other methods (e.g. automated) can be used for the test presented here provided that their equivalenc
27、e has been demonstrated or the method has been otherwise validated. Yeast enumerated can be identified using suitable identification tests, for example tests described in the standards listed in the Bibliography. Mould enumerated can be identified by other appropriate methods, if necessary. 2 Normat

32、 3.5 initial suspension suspension (or solution) of a sample in a defined volume of an appropriate liquid (diluent, neutralizer, broth or combination thereof) 3.6 sample dilution(s) dilution(s) of the initial suspension 4 Principles 4.1 General This method involves enumeration of colonies on a selec
33、tive agar medium. The possible inhibition of fungal growth by the sample shall be neutralized to allow the detection of viable microorganism (see Reference 2). In all cases and whatever the methodology, the neutralization of the antifungicidal properties of the product shall be checked and validated
34、 (see References 3, 5, 6). 4.2 Plate count Plate count consists of the following steps. a) Preparation of poured plates or spread plates, using a specified culture medium, and inoculation of the plates using a defined quantity of the initial suspension or dilution of the product. b) Aerobic incubati
35、on of the plates at 25 C 2,5 C for 3 d to 5 d. c) Counting of the number of colony-forming units (CFU) and calculation of the amount of yeast and mould per millilitre or per gram of product. NOTE An alternative condition for incubation is 22,5 C 2,5 C for 5 d to 7 d using the culture medium without
36、antibiotic. 4.3 Membrane filtration Membrane filtration consists of the following steps. a) Transfer of a suitable amount of the sample, prepared by a valid method, in the filtration apparatus, wetted with a small volume of an appropriate sterile diluent. Immediate filtration and washing according t
37、o the validated procedure. Transfer of the membrane filter on to the surface of the specified agar medium as specified in ISO 21148. b) Aerobic incubation of the membranes at 25 C 2,5 C for 3 d to 5 d. c) Counting of the number of colony-forming units (CFU) and calculation of the amount of yeast and
38、 mould per millilitre or per gram of product. NOTE An alternative condition for incubation is 22,5 C 2,5 C for 5 d to 7 d using the culture medium without antibiotic.
