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 3.
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 International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 6577 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Food products, Subcommittee
SC 7, Spices and condiments.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 6577:1990), of which it constitutes a minor revision.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.

4 Types and classification
4.1 Nutmeg
4.1.1 Whole or broken nutmeg (Siauw type or Banda type)
Origin: South-east Asia.
Siauw-type or Banda-type nutmeg is generally of a greyish-brown colour, but it may be white if it has been subjected
to liming for the purpose of protecting it from insects and as an aid to conservation. It is spherical or slightly ovoid in
shape, its length generally varying from 20 mm to 30 mm and its width from 15 mm to 25 mm. Its surface is hard to
the touch, marked with numerous braided furrows and with a narrow groove which extends from the hilum to the
chalaza on the least-convex side.

Grenada-type nutmeg has the same colour characteristics as the nutmeg described in 4.1.1. It is never limed and it

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée aux
comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du comité
technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison
avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique
internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI, Partie 3.
Les projets de Normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour
vote. Leur publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités membres
votants.
L'attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments de la présente Norme internationale peuvent faire l'objet
de droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. L'ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne pas
avoir identifié de tels droits de propriété et averti de leur existence.
La Norme internationale ISO 6577 a été élaborée par le comité technique ISO/TC 34, Produits alimentaires, sous-
comité SC 7, Épices.
Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition (ISO 6577:1990), dont elle constitue une révision
mineure.
