ISO 6468 Determination of Organochlorine Pesticides in Surface Water: Eurolabs Laboratory Testing Service

1.1 Introduction to ISO 6468

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has established numerous standards to ensure the quality and reliability of various products, services, and processes across industries. One such standard is ISO 6468:1997, which outlines the method for determining organochlorine pesticides in surface water.

1.2 Relevant Standards

  • ISO 6468:1997: Determination of Organochlorine Pesticides in Surface Water

  • EN 12786:2006: Determination of Pesticide Residues by Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS)

  • ASTM E2609-10: Standard Practice for the Determination of Pesticides in Water

    • 1.3 Legal and Regulatory Framework

    Regulatory agencies worldwide have implemented laws and guidelines to ensure safe drinking water and protect the environment from pesticide contamination. These regulations require industries and individuals to test surface water samples for organochlorine pesticides, including:

  • US EPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency): Pesticide General Monitoring Program

  • EU Water Framework Directive: Water Quality Standards for Pesticides

    • 1.4 Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in creating and maintaining standards. These organizations include:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

    • 1.5 Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to address emerging issues, improve methodologies, or update regulations.
