Comprehensive Guide to ISO 14675 Hormone Residue Testing in Fruits and Vegetables Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 14675 is an international standard that governs hormone residue testing in fruits and vegetables. This standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is widely adopted by laboratories around the world.

The ISO 14675 standard outlines the requirements for testing for hormone residues in fruits and vegetables, including the selection of samples, preparation of samples, analytical methods, and reporting of results. The standard also includes guidelines for the validation of analytical methods and the quality control measures that must be taken during testing.

International and National Standards

The ISO 14675 standard is based on several international and national standards, including:

  • ISO 5725:1994 (General requirements for calibration and testing laboratory)

  • ISO 9001:2015 (Quality management system)

  • ASTM E1408-05 (Standard practice for sampling of fruits and vegetables)

  • EN 14143:2003 (Analytical methods for the determination of residues of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs)

    • Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a non-profit organization that develops and publishes international standards. The ISO is responsible for developing and maintaining the ISO 14675 standard.

    Other organizations, such as the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), also develop standards related to hormone residue testing in fruits and vegetables.

    Standard Evolution and Update

    Standards are continually reviewed and updated to reflect changes in technology, regulations, and best practices. The ISO 14675 standard has undergone several revisions since its initial publication in 2004.

    Specific Standard Numbers and Scope

    The following is a list of specific standard numbers related to hormone residue testing in fruits and vegetables:

  • ISO 14675:2012 (Hormone residues - Testing of fruits, vegetables, and derived products)

  • ASTM E1408-05 (Standard practice for sampling of fruits and vegetables)

  • EN 14143:2003 (Analytical methods for the determination of residues of veterinary medicinal products in foodstuffs)

    • Compliance Requirements

    Laboratories that perform hormone residue testing must comply with the requirements outlined in the ISO 14675 standard. Compliance is typically achieved through accreditation or certification programs, such as those offered by the International Accreditation Forum (IAF).
