BS EN ISO 13843:2017 deals with characterization of microbiological methods. In terms of this document,
characterization means the study of parameters that can be measured to describe how the method is
likely to perform in a given set of conditions, which can be described as performance characteristics.
The document describes procedures for the determination of performance characteristics which can be
used for subsequent validation or verification of methods.The emphasis is on selective quantitative methods and this document applies to all types of water. For
methods that are not based upon direct microscopic count, colony count or most probable number, the
applicability of the procedures described in this document should be considered carefully.Cross References:ISO 17994:2014 ED2ISO 5725-1:1994ISO 7704:1985 (R10)ISO 9308-2:2012 ED2ISO 17511:2003 Ed 1ISO 5725-2:1994/COR 1:2002ISO 3534-1:2006ISO 5725-4:1994ISO 29201:2012ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007ISO 5725-6:1994ISO 16140-1:2016ISO 5725-5:1998ISO 5725-3:1994ISO 11133:2014ISO 9308-1:2014 ED3ISO 8199:2005All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
