Water quality - Marine algal growth inhibition test with Skeletonema costatum and Phaeodactylum tricornutum (ISO 10253:1995)

Migrated from Progress Sheet (TC Comment) (2000-07-10): Parallel voting procedure ISO/CEN

Wasserbeschaffenheit - Wachstumshemmtest mit marinen Algen Skeletonema costatum und Phaeodactylum tricornutum (ISO 10253: 1995)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung toxischer Effekte chemischer Verbindungen auf das Wachstum mariner Algen fest. Das Verfahren kann auf in Wasser gut lösliche Substanzen angewendet werden, die vor der Untersuchung weder signifikant abgebaut noch eliminiert werden. Anmerkung 1: Mit geringfügigen Änderungen kann das Verfahren auch auf zur Bestimmung der Hemmwirkung von Abwässern angewendet werden, siehe jedoch die Anmerkung zur Tabelle 2.

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. Esch 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
(1 EC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
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.
International Standard ISO 10253 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 5, Biological methods.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.
