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
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

Introduction
In recent years, threats of infectious diseases mediated by insects such as mosquitoes are rising. In
response to consumers' concerns about this, demand for high-performance anti-mosquito fabrics has
been expanding. However, there has been no standard for evaluating the performance of such anti-
mosquito fabrics, and it has been difficult to provide fair technical information on their performance.
Therefore, a new test method was established in order to evaluate anti-mosquito performance of
fabrics.For this purpose, an apparatus was developed for attraction and blood feeding of blood-unfed
mosquitoes through fabrics without using human or animal as a feeding source.The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) draws attention to the fact that it is claimed
that compliance with this document may involve the use of a patent.ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity and scope of this patent right.
The holder of this patent right has assured ISO that he/she is willing to negotiate licenses under
reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions with applicants throughout the world. In
this respect, the statement of the holder of this patent right is registered with ISO. Information may be
obtained from the patent database available at www.iso.org/patents.Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights other than those in the patent database. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying
any or all such patent rights.© ISO 2022 – All rights reserved

fabric for preventing blood sucking by treating chemicals or processing fabric structure
3.2landing
state of mosquito alighting and staying on a surface within an arbitrary section (on the test specimen)
3.3blood feeding rate
percentage of the number of blood-fed mosquitoes through specimen to the total number of mosquitoes
3.4probing behaviour
behaviour of mosquito while looking for a place to insert its proboscis for blood feeding
Note 1 to entry: This gesture is recognized as an up and down movement of the head.
3.5blood feeding prevention
effectiveness of test sample in preventing blood feeding of mosquitoes
Note 1 to entry: In this document, it is indicated by the blood feeding prevention index.
4 PrincipleUsing the attractive blood feeding device, obtain the blood feeding prevention index and determine the

2 test cage 6 feeding device3 specimen holder 7 ventilation fan
4 test specimen 8 frame
Figure 1 — Configuration example of attractive blood feeding device
5.1.2 Feeding device
The feeding device is composed of a feed reservoir for pouring test blood and a thermostat temperature
regulator. An example of the configuration is shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3.5.1.1.1 Feed reservoir, composed of a metal or glass container holding test blood and membrane
covering the container. The surface covered with membranes serves as the feeding surface.
The diameter of feeding surface of feed reservoir shall be 35 mm ± 2 mm. The capacity of feed reservoir
should be at least 3 ml.5.1.1.2 Membrane
An animal intestine, animal skin, collagen film, sausage casing, or artificial skin to be used as a
membrane through which a test mosquito can blood feed. Selected membrane should be agreed upon
between the interested parties.© ISO 2022 – All rights reserved
