Complete Guide to ISO 18400 Soil Sampling for Mycotoxin Testing Laboratory Testing Service by Eurolab

ISO 18400 is a globally recognized standard for soil sampling for mycotoxin testing, developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The standard provides guidelines for the collection and handling of soil samples to ensure accurate and reliable test results. In this section, we will provide comprehensive information about the relevant standards that govern ISO 18400 Soil Sampling for Mycotoxin Testing testing.

Relevant Standards

  • ISO 18400:2017 - Soil quality - Sampling of soils for field measurement of moisture content
  • ASTM D6938-14 - Standard Test Method for Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity, by Infiltration, Under Affects Conditions
  • EN ISO 11074:2009 - Soil quality - Vocabulary
  • TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) 1337 - Soil sampling methods for determination of chemical and physical properties
  • Legal and Regulatory Framework

    The legal and regulatory framework surrounding soil sampling for mycotoxin testing is governed by various national and international regulations. These regulations vary depending on the country, industry, and type of product being tested. Some of the key regulations include:

  • EU Regulation 178/2002 - Food Law
  • US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) guidelines for soil sampling
  • OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) guidelines for testing chemicals
  • International and National Standards

    ISO 18400 is a global standard that provides guidelines for soil sampling. However, national standards may also be applicable depending on the countrys regulations. Some of the key international and national standards that apply to this specific laboratory test include:

  • ISO 17025:2017 - General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories
  • ASTM D6958-17 - Standard Practice for Soil Sampling for Field Testing
  • Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in developing and maintaining international and national standards. Some of the key standard development organizations include:

  • ISO (International Organization for Standardization)
  • ASTM International
  • ENI (European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization)
  • Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time as new technologies, methods, and regulations emerge. Standard development organizations continuously update and revise standards to ensure they remain relevant and effective.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some specific standard numbers and their scope include:

  • ISO 18400:2017 - Soil quality - Sampling of soils for field measurement of moisture content
  • Applies to soil sampling for field measurement of moisture content

  • ASTM D6938-14 - Standard Test Method for Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity, by Infiltration, Under Affects Conditions
  • Applies to saturated hydraulic conductivity testing

    Compliance Requirements

    Different industries have varying compliance requirements. For example:

  • Food industry: EU Regulation 178/2002 requires soil sampling for mycotoxin testing to ensure product safety and quality.
  • Environmental industry: EPA guidelines require soil sampling for environmental monitoring.
  • ...
