This part of ISO 105 specifies a method intended for determining the resistance of the colour of textiles of all kinds, except loose fibres, to the action of weather as determined by exposure to simulated weathering conditions in a cabinet equipped with a xenon arc lamp. ISO 105-B04 focuses on textiles (such as apparel) where the main evaluation criteria is the colour fastness.
This method can be used to determine if a textile is wet light-sensitive.
NOTE 1 General information on colour fastness to light is given in Annex A.
NOTE 2 Textiles or technical textiles, which are permanently exposed to an outdoor environment and/or require mechanical testing (such as tensile strength determination) may be tested according to ISO 105-B10.

This document provides a list of target sequences that can be used to screen for the presence of genetically modified (GM) material in cotton and cotton products. This document is applicable to cottonseed, cotton leaf, cotton fibre and cotton fibre-derived materials from which sufficiently high-quality PCR amplifiable DNA can be extracted. Methods describing the extraction of DNA from different cotton samples can be found in ISO 5354-1[1]. NOTE 1 The list of target sequences provides guidance for the screening of all currently known GM cotton events and GM cotton events that contain the same DNA sequences. Further guidance on screening of foodstuffs is provided in CEN/TS 16707[2]. NOTE 2 Sampling is outside of the scope of this document. Information on sampling cotton products can be found in ISO 1130:1975[3] and in ASTM D1441-12[4].

This document is applicable to the determination of microplastics (from the textile sector) collected in various matrices (for example textile process wastewater, clothes washing water, textile process air emissions, textile process solid waste). This document specifies expression of results in terms of estimated surface area and mass of microplastics (MPs) per unit sample. It enables the expression of the results of the quantification of microplastics (MPs) from various sources, including samples related to the production, processing, treatment and use of textiles (raw material, manufacturing process, sample like wastewater from washing clothes, air, and industrial process water). This document applies to textile sector samples of matrices of different physical states (solid, liquid or aeriform), for example: — solid samples from textile production processes; — water samples from the textile production process and/or from the washing of clothing (e.g. garments or other textiles, ISO 4484-1 or ISO 4484-3 can be applied in order to prepare a liquid to be tested); — air samples to test the air quality in the workplace of textile companies.

This document specifies quantitative test methods to determine the antibacterial activity of all antibacterial textile products including nonwovens.
This document is applicable to all textile products, including cloth, wadding, thread and material for clothing, bedclothes, home furnishings and miscellaneous goods, regardless of the type of antibacterial agent used (organic, inorganic, natural or man-made) or the method of application (built-in, after-treatment or grafting).
This document covers three inoculation methods for the determination of antibacterial activity:
a) absorption method (an evaluation method in which the test bacterial suspension is inoculated directly onto specimens);
b) transfer method (an evaluation method in which test bacteria are placed on an agar plate and transferred onto specimens);
c) printing method (an evaluation method in which test bacteria are placed on a filter and printed onto specimens).
NOTE            Based on the intended application and on the environment in which the textile product is to be used, and also on the surface properties of the textile properties, the user can select the most suitable inoculation method.
This document also specifies the colony plate count method and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) luminescence method for measuring the enumeration of bacteria.

appropriate combinations of domestic washing and drying procedures. This document also specifies
the reference detergents and ballasts for the procedures.
1.2 Provision is made for
a) 16 different washing procedures based on the use of the reference washing machine Type A:
horizontal axis, front-loading type,
b) 12 procedures based on the use of the reference washing machine Type B: vertical axis, top-loading
agitator type, and
c) 7 procedures based on the use of the reference washing machine Type C: vertical axis, top-loading
pulsator type.
1.3 Each washing procedure represents a single domestic wash.
1.4 This document also specifies six drying procedures: line dry, line drip dry, flat dry, flat drip dry,
flat press, and tumble dry.
1.5 A complete test consists of a washing and drying procedure.
NOTE Use of different parameters (washing machine type, detergent type and type of tumble dryer) can
affect test results for any test using this document.
