ISO 16128-2 Natural and Organic Content Calculation Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

Standard-Related Information

ISO 16128-2 is an international standard that outlines the requirements for calculating the natural and organic content of products. This standard is published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is widely adopted across various industries, including cosmetics, personal care, food, and textiles.

The standard is based on the principles of Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and provides a framework for laboratories to ensure the accuracy and reliability of their test results. The standard requires laboratories to follow strict protocols for sample preparation, testing, and data analysis.

In addition to ISO 16128-2, there are several other international standards that govern natural and organic content calculation testing, including:

  • ASTM D6521 (Standard Practice for Calculating the Natural and Organic Content of Products)
  • EN 16054 (European Standard for the Calculation of the Natural and Organic Content of Products)
  • TSE ISO 16128-2 (Turkish Standard for Natural and Organic Content Calculation)
  • These standards are developed by standard development organizations such as ASTM International, CEN (European Committee for Standardization), and TSE (Turkish Standards Institution). These organizations bring together experts from various industries to develop and update standards that meet the evolving needs of manufacturers and consumers.

    Standard Requirements and Needs

    ISO 16128-2 Natural and Organic Content Calculation testing is required by law in many countries, including the European Union, where products must comply with the EUs Cosmetic Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009 and the EUs Food Safety Authority Regulation (EU) No. 1169/2011.

    This testing is also required by industry leaders and certification bodies, such as the Natural Products Association (NPA), the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the International Trade Centre (ITC).

    The business and technical reasons for conducting ISO 16128-2 Natural and Organic Content Calculation testing are:

  • To ensure compliance with regulatory requirements
  • To protect consumer health and safety
  • To differentiate products from competitors
  • To increase customer trust and confidence
  • To improve product quality and reliability
  • Test Conditions and Methodology

    The test conditions for ISO 16128-2 Natural and Organic Content Calculation testing are as follows:

    1. Sample Preparation: Samples must be prepared according to the standards guidelines, which include homogenization, drying, and grinding.

    2. Testing Equipment and Instruments: Laboratories must use calibrated equipment and instruments that meet the requirements of the standard.

    3. Testing Environment Requirements: The laboratory environment must meet strict temperature (25C 2C), humidity (50 10), and pressure requirements.

    4. Measurement and Analysis Methods: The testing parameters include infrared spectroscopy, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

    5. Data Collection and Recording: All data must be collected and recorded in accordance with the standards guidelines.
