ISO 16649-2 E. coli Enumeration in Dairy Products Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 16649-2 is a widely recognized international standard for the enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in dairy products. This standard, developed and published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), provides a comprehensive framework for the testing and analysis of E. coli levels in various types of dairy products.

Overview of Relevant Standards

The ISO 16649-2 standard is part of the larger family of ISO standards related to microbiological analysis. Some of the key standards relevant to this specific test include:

  • ISO 16649-2:2018(E) - Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs -- Horizontal method for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli)
  • ISO 6887-1:2003(E) - Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs -- Preparation of test samples, initial suspension and decimal dilutions for microbiological examination
  • ISO 11133:2014(E) - Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs -- Prepacked microbiological culture media
  • International and National Standards

    In addition to the ISO standards mentioned above, various national and international organizations have developed their own standards and guidelines related to E. coli enumeration in dairy products. Some notable examples include:

  • ASTM D6861-12 - Standard Test Method for Enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in Water by Membrane Filtration Using a Coliform/E. coli Membrane Throat (CMET)
  • EN ISO 16649-2:2018(E) - Microbiology of food and animal feeding stuffs -- Horizontal method for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli (E. coli)
  • TSE L10 - Microbiological analysis methods in foods
  • Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), European Committee for Standardization (CEN), and Turkish Standards Institution (TSE) are some of the key standard development organizations involved in the development and publication of standards related to E. coli enumeration.

    How Standards Evolve and Get Updated

    Standards evolve through a collaborative process involving experts from various industries, governments, and other stakeholders. The process typically involves:

    1. Review of existing standards and literature

    2. Identification of gaps and areas for improvement

    3. Development of new draft standards or revisions to existing ones

    4. Public comment periods and stakeholder engagement

    5. Finalization and publication of the updated standard

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some key standard numbers related to E. coli enumeration in dairy products include:
