1.1 本实验室实践用于确定抗菌剂对防止造纸工业中使用的水性产品在加工过程中细菌腐败的功效。有关真菌腐败的信息，请参阅试验方法 E875 。这种做法应由接受过基本微生物学培训的人员执行。 1.2 以国际单位制表示的值应被视为标准值。本标准不包括其他计量单位。 1.3 本标准并不旨在解决与其使用相关的所有安全问题（如果有的话）。本标准的使用者有责任在使用前建立适当的安全、健康和环境实践，并确定监管限制的适用性。 （见《美国联邦法规》第40篇第160部分。） 1.4 本国际标准是根据世界贸易组织技术性贸易壁垒委员会发布的《关于制定国际标准、指南和建议的原则的决定》中确立的国际公认的标准化原则制定的。 =====意义和用途====== 5.1 这种做法应用于确定抗菌剂是否能保存颜料悬浮液、染料溶液、纸浆浆、淀粉溶液、聚合物、施胶剂、乳胶乳液和其他水性- 造纸工业中使用的基础材料，防止细菌腐败。 注1: 类似产品的真菌腐败控制可以通过试验方法进行评估 E875 . 注2: 用于控制真菌或细菌粘液的杀粘剂可以通过试验方法进行评估 E1839 .

1.1 This laboratory practice is used to determine the efficacy of an antimicrobial for preventing bacterial spoilage of in-process aqueous-based products used in the paper industry. For information on fungal spoilage, see Test Method E875 . This practice should be performed by persons who have had basic microbiological training. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. 1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. (See 40 CFR Part 160.) 1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee. ====== Significance And Use ====== 5.1 This practice should be used to determine if an antimicrobial preserves pigment suspensions, dye solutions, pulp slurries, starch solutions, polymers, sizing agents, latex emulsions, and other aqueous-based materials used in the paper industry from bacterial spoilage. Note 1: Control of fungal spoilage of similar products can be evaluated by Test Method E875 . Note 2: Slimicides for control of fungal or bacterial slime can be evaluated by Test Method E1839 .
