ISO 21149 Detection of Aerobic Mesophilic Bacteria in Industrial Products: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

The detection of aerobic mesophilic bacteria in industrial products is a critical aspect of quality control and assurance. This testing service is governed by various international and national standards, including ISO 21149, which provides guidelines for the detection and enumeration of aerobic mesophilic bacteria in products.

Relevant Standards and Organizations

  • ISO 21149:2018 - Detection of Aerobic Mesophilic Bacteria in Industrial Products
  • EN ISO 22956:2009 - Water quality - Determination of the bacterial count (total number of viable cells)
  • ASTM D5181-17 - Standard Test Method for Determining the Total Bacterial Count in Water
  • The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is responsible for developing and maintaining standards related to laboratory testing. The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) also play significant roles in standard development.

    Legal and Regulatory Framework

    The detection of aerobic mesophilic bacteria in industrial products is subject to various regulations, including:

  • European Unions Drinking Water Directive (98/83/EC): Requires water suppliers to ensure that drinking water meets specified microbiological standards.
  • US Environmental Protection Agencys (EPA) Safe Drinking Water Act: Establishes standards for drinking water quality, including microbiological parameters.
  • Standard Development and Update

    Standards are developed through a collaborative process between industry stakeholders, experts, and regulatory bodies. The development of ISO 21149 involved input from various organizations, including the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS).

    The standard has undergone revisions to reflect advances in testing technologies and methodologies.
