Water quality - Detection and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa - Method by membrane filtration (ISO 16266:2006)
ISO 16266:2006 specifies a method for the isolation and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in samples of bottled water by a membrane filtration technique. This method can also be applied to other types of water with a low background flora, for example, pool waters and waters intended for human consumption.
Wasserbeschaffenheit - Nachweis und Zählung von Pseudomonas aeruginosa - Membranfiltrationsverfahren (ISO 16266:2006)
Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zum Nachweis und zur Zählung von Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Proben von abgefülltem Wasser nach einem Membranfiltrationsverfahren fest. Dieses Verfahren ist auch für andere Wasserarten mit geringer Begleitflora geeignet, wie z. B. Schwimm und Badebeckenwasser sowie Wasser für den menschlichen Gebrauch
Qualité de l'eau - Détection et dénombrement de Pseudomonas aeruginosa - Méthode par filtration sur membrane (ISO 16266:2006)
L'ISO 16266:2006 spécifie une méthode permettant d'isoler et de dénombrer Pseudomonas aeruginosa dans des échantillons d'eau embouteillée, par filtration sur membrane. Cette méthode peut également être appliquée à d'autres types d'eau présentant une faible flore interférente, par exemple les eaux de piscine et les eaux destinées à la consommation humaine.

Foreword
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 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 closely 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. Draft 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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 16266 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 4,
Microbiological methods.
This International Standard is the equivalent of EN 12780:2002.

Introduction
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen of man that is capable of growth in water at very low
nutrient concentrations. At source and during marketing, a natural mineral water or a spring water is to be free
[1]
from Pseudomonas aeruginosa in any 250 ml sample examined (see, e.g. Council Directive 80/777/EEC and
[2]
Council Directive 96/70/EC ). Other bottled waters offered for sale are also to be free of Pseudomonas
[3]
aeruginosa in any 250 ml sample (see, e.g. Council Directive 98/83/EC ). Other waters, including pool waters
and water for human consumption, may sometimes be tested for Pseudomonas aeruginosa for reasons of public
health. In these cases, it is typical to examine 100 ml volumes.

WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory
practice. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with
its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to
ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.
IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this International Standard
be carried out by suitably trained staff.
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies a method for the isolation and enumeration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in
samples of bottled water by a membrane filtration technique. This method can also be applied to other types of
water with a low background flora, for example, pool waters and waters intended for human consumption.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
micro-organisms that grow on selective media containing cetrimide and produce pyocyanin, or
micro-organisms that grow on selective media containing cetrimide, are oxidase positive, fluoresce under UV
radiation (360 ± 20) nm, and are able to produce ammonia from acetamide
4 Principle
4.1 Filtration
A measured volume of the water sample, or a dilution of the sample, is filtered through a membrane filter of
0,45 µm. The membrane filter is placed on the selective medium and incubated under the conditions specified
for the medium.
4.2 Enumeration
The numbers of presumptive Pseudomonas aeruginosa are obtained by counting the number of characteristic
colonies on the membrane filter after incubation. Pyocyanin-producing colonies are considered as confirmed
Pseudomonas aeruginosa but other fluoresci
