The work of prepar

20、ing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in li

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Di

26、SO 18744:2016(E)IntroductionCryptosporidium spp. and Giardia duodenalis (syn. G. lamblia, G. intestinalis) are protozoan parasites that can cause enteric illness in humans. Both organisms are characterized by a robust transmission stage, the Cryptosporidium oocyst and the Giardia cyst, which can sur

27、vive in moist environments for prolonged periods. These transmission stages are hereafter referred to collectively as (oo)cysts. Cryptosporidium oocysts in particular are highly resistant to chlorine at the concentrations used in the treatment of drinking water, and chemical disinfection of leafy gr

28、een vegetables and berry fruits, where performed during processing, may also be ineffective. Consequently, the absence of vegetative bacteria on fresh produce as indicators of faecal contamination does not necessarily indicate the absence of (oo)cysts. No practical method exists to culture Cryptospo

29、ridium spp. and Giardia duodenalis for the purpose of detection, and therefore, in order to detect contamination with these parasites, direct removal of the (oo)cysts from the food sample must be performed, followed by visualization of the (oo)cysts by microscopy. The methods described in this Inter

30、national Standard are for determining whether Cryptosporidium and/or Giardia (oo)cysts are present on the surfaces of fresh produce and for their enumeration. This International Standard is based on published methods that have been tested in a multicentre collaborative trial. Alternative methods can

31、 be used following a demonstration of their equivalence with this International Standard following the protocol described in ISO 16140.1 ISO 2016 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 18744:2016BS EN ISO 18744:2016Microbiology of the food chain Detection and enumeration of Cryptosporidium and Giardia in fr

32、esh leafy green vegetables and berry fruitsWARNING Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user t

33、o establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a method that is applicable for the detection and enumeration of Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts on or in food products that are

34、 described herein as fresh leafy green vegetables and berry fruits. With suitable controls, it may also be applicable for the examination of other fresh produce.The microscopy descriptions are for Cryptosporidium spp. oocysts and Giardia duodenalis cysts of size ranges which include those species (C

35、ryptosporidium) or assemblages (Giardia) known to be pathogenic to humans.This method does not include any molecular analysis and therefore is not suitable for the determination of the species or genotypes/assemblages of Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts. The method will detect all species a

36、nd genotypes/assemblages that are known to be pathogenic for humans and also others that are not. For further identification, molecular typing assays are required. However, these cannot be reliably performed if process positive controls have been spiked into the samples, as the result of molecular t

37、yping assays will be obfuscated.This method does not allow the determination of viability or infectivity of any Cryptosporidium oocysts and Giardia cysts which may be present.2 Normative referencesThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indis
