Plant biostimulants - Preparation of sample for microbial analysis

This document defines general rules for the aerobic preparation of the initial suspension and of dilutions for microbiological examinations of microbial plant biostimulants.
This horizontal method might not be appropriate in very detail for certain products. In this case, different methods which are specific to these products can be used if necessary, for justified technical reasons.

Pflanzen-Biostimulanzien - Probenvorbereitung für die mikrobielle Analyse

Dieses Dokument legt allgemeine Regeln für die aerobe Herstellung von Erstverdünnungen und Verdünnungen für mikrobiologische Untersuchungen von mikrobiellen Pflanzen-Biostimulanzien fest.
Dieses horizontale Verfahren ist für bestimmte Produkte nicht unbedingt bis ins Detail geeignet. In diesem Fall können andere Verfahren, die speziell auf diese Produkte zutreffen, angewendet werden, wenn dies aus gerechtfertigten technischen Gründen notwendig ist.

Biostimulants des végétaux - Préparation de l'échantillon pour l'analyse microbienne

Le présent document définit les règles générales pour la préparation aérobie de la suspension mère et des dilutions en vue de l’examen microbiologique des biostimulants microbiens des végétaux.
Cette méthode horizontale pourrait ne pas être appropriée dans le détail pour certains produits. Dans ce cas, des méthodes différentes, spécifiques à ces produits, peuvent être utilisées si cela s’avère nécessaire pour des raisons techniques justifiées.
