10、 be obtained from an approved mycological institute which shall certify that they are suitable for the test. 4.1.1 plugs, or as otherwise considered appropriate by the mycological institute. The cultures shall be supplied as spores, on an agar medium, in glass containers with cotton 4.1.2 The cultur

11、es used for preparing the test suspension shall be preferably between 14 d and 21 d old. In no case shall cultures which are less than 14 d or more than 28 d old be used. The stoppers shall not be removed until the suspension is about to be made, and only one suspension shall be made from the opened

12、 container. A fresh, unopened container shall be used for each preparation of a suspension. The cultures shall be stored in a refrigerator at a temperature between 5 OC and 1 O OC. 4.2 Preparation of spore suspension 4.2.1 non-fungicidal wetting agent. An agent based on N-methyl or on dioctyl sodium

13、 sulphosuccinate may be accepted. The suspension shall be prepared in deionized water to which has been added 0,05 % of a Page 5 EN 2591-306:1998 4.2.2 A platinum or a nichrorne wire shall be sterilized by heating to red heat in a flame and allowed to cool. This wire shall then be used to scrape gen

14、tly the surface of the culture to liberate spores. The liquid shall be slightly agitated to disperse the spores without detaching mycelial fragments. The suspension shall then be decanted into a flask. 10 ml of the water with wetting agent shall be poured gently into each tube. 4.2.3 break up any cl

15、umps of spores. All eight suspensions shall be shaken vigorously together in a flask to mix thoroughly and to 4.2.4 The suspension shall be used on the day of its preparation, and shall not be stored for future use. 4.3 It shall consist of a solution of the following materials in distilled water. Th

16、e quantities are amounts per litre of water. Preparation of the nutrient solution Modified Czapek-Dox nutrient solution with saccharose Potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate (KH2POJ 0,7 g Potassium monohydrogen orthophosphate (K2HPOJ 03 g Sodium nitrate (NaNO,) Potassium chloride (KCP) Ferrous sulphat

17、e (FeS047H,0) Saccharose 30 The solution shall be sterilized in an autoclave at 115 OC for 30 min. The pH solution shall then be measured and adjusted, if necessary, by addition of a 0.01 N sodium hydroxide solution to obtain a pH between 6,O and 6,5 after sterilization. 4.4 Control strips They shal

18、l be made of white filter paper which has not been exposed to any fungicidal treatment. They shall be placed in glass dishes and covered with the nutrient soiution (see 4.3). They shall be removed from this solution and allowed to drain immediately before use. The strips shall be prepared on the day

19、 the test commences. A freshly prepared nutrient solution shall be used for preparing each group of control strips. These strips shall be sprayed with the same suspension as that used for the specimens, Page 6 EN 2591 -306: 1998 5 Method These tests shall only be carried out by approved laboratories

20、. All specimens, reference specimens and a group of three control strips shall be put in separate containers. All containers shall be placed together in the same test chamber. The specimens and control strips shall be placed in the chamber within 15 min after spraying with spores. They shall not be

21、unduly disturbed during the test, except for opening container lids and the chamber door each week. The test chamber used shall maintain a temperature between 28 OC and 30 OC. Any periodic variation in temperature due to action of the thermostat shall not exceed 1 OC/h. Each specimen and control str

22、ip shall be put in a glass or plastic container (e.g. a Petri dish) with a lid. The container shall permanently contain water to maintain a relative humidity greater than 90 % inside. The specimens shall not be immersed or splashed by the water. The container lid shall be removed for a few seconds o

23、nce per week to ensure a regular supply of oxygen in the air to the growing moulds. The first opening shall be 7 d after spraying. If no mould growth is visible on any control strip, the test shall be considered invalid and shall be repeated. 5.1 Initial measurements (if applicable) They shall be ca

24、rried out as specified. If mould growth on the control strips indicates that the conditions are suitable and the moulds viable, the test shall continue for the time specified. If the chamber, or a container, becomes contaminated and must be cleaned, the preferred method is to heat it in a moisture s

25、aturated atmosphere at 120 OC for 1 h. Where heating is not possible, dry the chamber or the container and fumigate it with propylene oxide, finally washing it with water containing a detergent and ventilating it well to remove all oxide fumes. 5.2 Procedure 5.2.1 Method A Expose the specimens to th

26、e suspensions which shall be supplied with a medium containing no assimilable carbon. Mould growth can only take place to the detriment of the specimen component materials. If there are no edible materials, spores can not develop and there will be no attack. The period of exposure shall be one of th

27、e following: - 28 d: assessment of the mould growth by a single visual examination; - 84 d: in addition to assessment of the mould growth, assessment of the damage due to mould growth by the specified measurements. If 84 d exposure is specified, two groups of specimens shall be required: - first gro

28、up: specimens; - second group: reference specimens for damp heat test. The temperature and relative humidity conditions shall be identical for both tests, (mould growth and damp heat). STD-BSI BS EN 2593-30b-ENGL 1998 1624bb9 0735095 532 Page 7 EN 2591-3061998 5.2.1.1 Sprayings Sprayings shall be do

29、ne with pipettes or spray guns depending on the nature of the spray, but with identical characteristics. The nozzle, in particular, shall be large enough not to be blocked by fragments of mycelium. 5.2.1.2 Specimens (28 d or 84 d) They shall be sprayed with the suspension according to 4. 5.2.2 Metho

30、d B Expose the specimens to the specified suspensions deposited on a nutrient medium allowing mould to grow previously applied to them. Even if the specimens do not have any nutrient elements, mould growth may progress as well as the action of the products of their metabolism. The period of exposure

31、 (28 d or 84 d) shall be specified. Regardless of the period of exposure, mould growth shall be assessed by visual examination and the damage to specimens by measurements. Three groups of specimens are required: - first group: specimens; - second group: reference specimens for damp heat test; - thir

32、d group: laboratory reference specimens which shall not be exposed to any test and to be used as reference for visual examination. The periods of exposure, the temperature and relative humidity conditions for the first group exposed to the mould growth test and the second group exposed to the damp h

33、eat test shall be identical. 5.2.2.1 Sprayings See 5.2.1.1. 5.2.2.2 Specimens They shall be sprayed with a sufficient quantity of nutrient solution (see 4.3) and allowed to dry. After drying, specimens shall be sprayed with the suspension (according to 4) on all their exposed surfaces. 5.2.2.3 Refer

34、ence specimens for damp heat test They shall be sprayed with an amount of sterile water containing a wetting agent equal to the amount of nutrient solution with suspension which has been sprayed on the specimens. 5.2.2.4 Control strips See 4.4. They shall be sprayed with a sufficient amount of nutri

35、ent solution and then allowed to dry. After drying, strips shall be sprayed with the same suspension as that sprayed on the specimens. The strips shall be tested at the same time and in the same test chamber as the specimens. STD-BSI BS EN 2591-30b-ENGL 3778 Lb24bb9 073507b 459 Page 8 EN 2591 -306 9

36、98 5.3 At the end of the test, specimens shall be subjected to a visual examination for assessment of mould growth. It shall be expressed according to the following scale: Measurements and requirements (Methods A and BI - O: - 1 : - 2: - 3: no growth apparent under a magnification of 50 times; mould

37、 growth not visible to the naked eye, but apparent under a magnification of 50 times; growth visible to the naked eye, but covering less than 25 % of the surface; growth visible to the naked eye and covering more than 25 % of the test surface. The myceliae shall then be carefully washed from the sur

38、face of the specimens, and the surface shall be examined through a magnifying glass or microscope to assess the nature of any physical attack or etching on the specimens. 5.4 Recovery Following the visual examination (according to 5.3) and where measurements after recovery are specified, the specime

39、ns shall be allowed to recover to initial conditions for 24 h. 5.5 Final measurements and requirements (Method B only) (if applicable) - EN 2591-206 - EN 2591-207 - EN 2591-101 These tests shall be carried out on specimens and on reference specimens. Any substantial variation between the results of

40、the two series of measurements shall be considered as due to mould growth.
