ISO 18512 Pesticide and Antibiotic Residues in Animal Dung Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab

ISO 18512 is a globally recognized standard that governs the laboratory testing of pesticide and antibiotic residues in animal dung. This standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to ensure consistency, reliability, and accuracy in testing results.

The Legal and Regulatory Framework

Pesticide and antibiotic residues in animal dung pose significant risks to human health and the environment. As a result, regulatory authorities around the world have established strict guidelines and regulations to control their levels in animal products. The European Unions (EU) Food Safety Regulation 2002/178/EC is one of the primary drivers for this standard.

International and National Standards

ISO 18512 is based on international standards such as:

  • ISO 5725: General requirements for calibration and testing laboratories

  • ISO 17025: Requirements for testing and calibration laboratories

  • EN 14011: Determination of pesticide residues in animal tissues

    • National standards, such as the United States Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) guidelines for residue testing, also influence this standard.

    Standard Development Organizations

    The International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the European Committee for Standardization (CEN), and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) are some of the primary standard development organizations involved in the creation and maintenance of ISO 18512.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve through a continuous process of review, revision, and improvement. This ensures that testing methods remain current with advancements in technology, science, and regulatory requirements.

    Specific Standard Numbers and Scope

    ISO 18512 is part of the ISO 14135 series, which deals with pesticide residues in animal tissues. The standards scope includes:
