Paper and board - Paper and board intended to come into contact with foodstuffs - Determination of mercury in an aqueous extract
This European Standard is one in a series of Standards for the determination of heavy metals in an aqueous extract of paper and paperboard intended for contact with food. This European Standard specifies the test method for the determination of mercury in an aqueous extract.
It is applicable to paper and board with extractable mercury content exceeding 0,06 mg per kg.
NOTE 1 The above limit of determination is 5 times below than the actual limit existing today or proposed in Europe.
NOTE 2 Mercury content levels below 0,06 mg per kg can be measured by this European Standard if very sensitive equipment is available and if all other laboratory conditions fulfil the requirements for trace element analysis.
Papier und Pappe - Papier und Pappe für den Kontakt mit Lebensmitteln - Bestimmung von Quecksilber in einem wässrigen Extrakt
Diese Europäische Norm ist Bestandteil einer Reihe von Normen, die die Bestimmung von Schwermetallen in
wässrigen Extrakten von Papier, Karton und Pappe, die in Kontakt mit Lebensmittel kommen, festlegen. Diese
Europäische Norm legt ein Prüfverfahren zur quantitativen Bestimmung von Quecksilber in einem wässrigen
Extrakt fest.
Sie ist anwendbar auf Papier, Karton und Pappe mit extrahierbaren Quecksilbergehalten, die den Wert von
0,06 mg je kg überschreiten.
ANMERKUNG 1 Die vorstehend genannte Bestimmungsgrenze ist 5-mal geringer als das zurzeit existierende oder in
Europa vorgeschlagene Limit.
ANMERKUNG 2 Quecksilbergehalte, die unterhalb der Bestimmungsgrenze von 0,06 mg je kg liegen, können mit dieser
Europäischen Norm gemessen werden, wenn eine geeignete empfindliche Laborausstattung vorhanden ist. Ferner
müssen für die Spurenelementanalyse alle anderen Laborbedingungen die Anforderungen erfüllen.
Papier et carton - Papiers et cartons destinés à entrer en contact avec les denrées alimentaires - Détermination du mercure dans un extrait aqueux
La présente Norme européenne fait partie d'une série de normes pour la détermination des métaux lourds
dans un extrait aqueux de papier ou de carton destiné à entrer en contact avec les denrées alimentaires. La
présente Norme européenne prescrit la méthode d'essai pour la détermination du mercure dans un extrait
aqueux.
Elle est applicable aux papiers et cartons ayant des teneurs en mercure extractible dépassant 0,06 mg par
kilogramme.
NOTE 1 La limite de détermination indiquée ci-dessus est 5 fois plus basse que la limite réelle existant actuellement ou
proposée en Europe.
NOTE 2 Les teneurs en mercure inférieures à 0,06 mg/kg peuvent être mesurées selon cette Norme européenne si
l'on dispose d'un appareillage très sensible et si les autres conditions dans le laboratoire satisfont aux exigences de
l'analyse des éléments à l'état de traces.
