Comprehensive Guide to ISO 8199 Microbial Enumeration in Water Using Membrane Filtration Testing Services

ISO 8199:2017 is an international standard for the microbial enumeration of water using membrane filtration. The standard provides a method for determining the number of microorganisms present in water samples, which is essential for ensuring public health and safety.

The standard is developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and is widely adopted across the globe. In addition to ISO 8199:2017, there are other relevant standards that govern microbial enumeration in water using membrane filtration, including:

  • ASTM D4488-14: Standard Practice for Microbiological Monitoring of Water

  • EN 16265:2013: Water Quality Enumeration of microorganisms in water by culture-based methods

  • TSE L5:2014: Turkish Standard for Microbial Examination of Drinking Water

    • These standards provide a framework for laboratory testing and ensure that results are accurate, reliable, and comparable across different laboratories.

    The standard development process involves several organizations, including the ISO, ASTM, and EN. These organizations work together to develop and maintain standards through a collaborative effort.

    ISO 8199:2017 is required for ensuring public health and safety by detecting microorganisms in water that can cause illness or infection. The standard provides a method for enumerating microorganisms in water using membrane filtration, which is an essential step in ensuring the quality of drinking water.

    The test is necessary because:

  • Microorganisms present in water can cause serious health issues

  • Contaminated water can spread diseases and infections

  • Accurate results are crucial for public health and safety
