Comprehensive Guide to ASTM D7817 Detection of Vibrio cholerae Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ASTM D7817 is a widely recognized standard for the detection of Vibrio cholerae, a bacterium that causes cholera, a waterborne disease. This standard is published by ASTM International (American Society for Testing and Materials), a global leader in developing and publishing standards for materials, products, systems, and services.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The detection of Vibrio cholerae is regulated by various international and national standards, including ISO 16140-2:2016 (Microbiology of the environment Detection of bioindicators Part 2: Detection of Vibrio cholerae), EN 13697:2004 (Water quality Detection and enumeration of infectious cells, including Vibrio cholerae), and TSE 1410 (Turkish Standard for Water Quality Detection and Enumeration of Infectious Cells).

International and National Standards

The detection of Vibrio cholerae is governed by several international standards:

  • ISO 16140-2:2016 (Microbiology of the environment Detection of bioindicators Part 2: Detection of Vibrio cholerae)
  • EN 13697:2004 (Water quality Detection and enumeration of infectious cells, including Vibrio cholerae)
  • National standards for water quality also regulate the detection of Vibrio cholerae:

  • TSE 1410 (Turkish Standard for Water Quality Detection and Enumeration of Infectious Cells)
  • Standard Development Organizations

    ASTM International is a standard development organization that develops and publishes standards for materials, products, systems, and services. Other notable standard development organizations include ISO (International Organization for Standardization), EN (European Standards), and TSE (Turkish Standards).

    Evolution and Update of Standards

    Standards evolve as new technologies and techniques become available, and existing ones are updated to reflect changes in the field. The detection of Vibrio cholerae is no exception:

  • ISO 16140-2:2016 was published in 2016, updating previous standards for the detection of Vibrio cholerae.
  • EN 13697:2004 has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2004.
  • Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with relevant standards is essential for industries that require the detection of Vibrio cholerae:

  • Water treatment plants
  • Drinking water suppliers
  • Food processing and manufacturing facilities
  • Pharmaceutical companies
  • Inadequate testing can lead to serious health consequences, including outbreaks of cholera. Compliance with international and national standards ensures public safety.
