Water quality - Enumeration of Clostridium perfringens - Method using membrane filtration (ISO 14189:2013)
ISO 14189:2013 specifies a method for the enumeration of vegetative cells and spores of Clostridium perfringens by the membrane filtration method in samples of water intended for human consumption. However, the method can be applied to all types of water samples provided they do not contain particulate or colloidal matter that interferes with filtration.

Qualité de l'eau - Dénombrement de Clostridium perfringens - Méthode par filtration sur membrane (ISO 14189:2013)
L'ISO 14189:2013 spécifie une méthode pour le dénombrement des cellules végétatives et des spores de Clostridium perfringens par filtration sur membrane dans des échantillons d'eau destinée à la consommation humaine. Cette méthode peut toutefois s'appliquer à tous les types d'échantillons d'eau, sous réserve qu'ils ne contiennent pas de matière particulaire ou colloïdale interférant avec la filtration.
Kakovost vode - Ugotavljanje števila Clostridium perfringens - Metoda membranske filtracije (ISO 14189:2013)
Ta mednarodni standard določa metodo za ugotavljanje števila vegetativnih celic in spor Clostridium perfringens z metodo membranske filtracije vzorcev vode, namenjene za prehrano ljudi. Vendar pa je mogoče to metodo uporabiti za vse vrste vodnih vzorcev, če ne vsebujejo delcev ali koloidnih snovi, ki ovirajo filtracijo.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
Clostridium perfringens is widely recognized as a valuable indicator for faecal pollution. Within the
intestinal tract of animals and man, these Gram-positive bacteria form spores which are resistant to
heating compared with vegetative cells. C. perfringens in the intestine exists both as spores and vegetative
cells, spores are also found in environmental samples. The spores of C. perfringens survive in water for
months, much longer than vegetative faecal indicator bacteria and consequently their presence may
indicate remote or intermittent faecal pollution. Monitoring of C. perfringens has proven useful for the
assessment of the quality of water resources and to check the stages of water treatment to evaluate the
treatment-works performance. The spores are not always inactivated by routine disinfection procedures
(e.g. chlorination).
