Cosmetics - Microbiology - Quality control of culture media and diluents used in cosmetics standards (ISO 4973:2023)

This document specifies the minimum requirements for quality control of microbiological culture
media and diluents in order to demonstrate their ability to detect microorganisms and to ensure
reliability of the microbiological test methods described in the ISO cosmetics microbiology standards.
This document describes mainly growth promotion and microbial control tests and is applicable to
both commercially ready-to-use culture media and culture media prepared from dehydrated culture
media or basic constituents in the user’s laboratory.
Other methods can be substituted provided that their equivalence has been demonstrated.

Kosmetische Mittel - Mikrobiologie - Qualitätskontrolle von Nährmedien und Verdünnungsmitteln, die in den Normen für kosmetischen Mittel verwendet werden (ISO 4973:2023)

Dieses Dokument legt die Mindestanforderungen an die Qualitätskontrolle mikrobiologischer Nährmedien und Verdünnungsmitteln fest, um deren Fähigkeit zum Nachweis von Mikroorganismen nachzuweisen und die Zuverlässigkeit der in den ISO Normen zur Mikrobiologie kosmetischer Mittel beschriebenen mikrobiologischen Prüfverfahren sicherzustellen.
Dieses Dokument beschreibt hauptsächlich Prüfungen auf Wachstumsförderung und zur mikrobiellen Kontrolle und ist sowohl für handelsübliche Fertignährmedien als auch für Nährmedien, die im Labor des Anwenders aus Trockennährmedien oder Grundbestandteilen hergestellt werden, anwendbar.
Andere Verfahren können ersatzweise verwendet werden, sofern ihre Gleichwertigkeit nachgewiesen wurde.

Cosmétiques - Microbiologie - Contrôle qualité des milieux de culture et des diluants utilisés dans les normes relatives aux cosmétiques (ISO 4973:2023)

Le présent document spécifie les exigences minimales relatives au contrôle qualité des milieux de culture microbiologique et des diluants afin de démontrer leur capacité à assurer la détection de micro-organismes et de garantir la fiabilité des méthodes d'essais microbiologiques décrites dans les normes ISO relatives à la microbiologie cosmétique.
Le présent document décrit principalement des essais de fertilité et de contrôle microbien; il est applicable à la fois aux milieux de culture prêts à l'emploi disponibles dans le commerce et aux milieux de culture préparés à partir de milieux de culture déshydratés ou de constituants de base dans le laboratoire de l'utilisateur.
D'autres méthodes peuvent être utilisées sous réserve que leur équivalence ait été démontrée.

Kozmetika - Mikrobiologija - Kontrola kakovosti gojišč in razredčil, ki se uporabljajo v standardih za kozmetiko (ISO 4973:2023)

Ta dokument določa minimalne zahteve za kontrolo kakovosti mikrobioloških gojišč in razredčil, da se dokaže njihova sposobnost zaznavanja mikroorganizmov in zagotovi zanesljivost mikrobioloških preskusnih metod, opisanih v mikrobioloških standardih ISO za kozmetiko. Dokument opisuje predvsem preskuse spodbujanja rasti in mikrobiološkega nadzora ter se uporablja tako za gojišča, ki so komercialno pripravljena za uporabo, kot gojišča, pripravljena iz dehidriranih gojišč ali osnovnih sestavin v uporabnikovem laboratoriju.
Druge metode je mogoče nadomestiti, če je bila dokazana njihova enakovrednost.
