Cosmetics -- Microbiology -- Guidelines for the risk assessment and identification of microbiologically low-risk products

The objective of this International Standard is to help cosmetic manufacturers and regulatory bodies define those finished products that, based on a risk assessment, present a low risk of microbial contamination during production and/or use, and therefore, do not require the application of microbiological International Standards for cosmetics.


Cosmetics -- Microbiology -- Evaluation of the antimicrobial protection of a cosmetic product

1.1 General This International Standard comprises: — a preservation efficacy test; — a procedure for evaluating the overall antimicrobial protection of a cosmetic product which is not considered low risk, based on a risk assessment described in ISO 29621. This International Standard provides a procedure for the interpretation of data generated by the preservation efficacy test or by the microbiological risk assessment, or both. 1.2 Preservation efficacy test This test is a reference method that is to be used to evaluate the preservation of a cosmetic formulation. It applies to cosmetic products in the market place. This test is not required for those cosmetic products for which the microbiological risk has been determined to be low (see Annex A and ISO 29621). This test is primarily designed for water-soluble or water-miscible cosmetic products and can require adaptation, for example to test products in which water is the internal phase. The test described in this International Standard involves, for each test micro-organism, placing the formulation in contact with a calibrated inoculum, and then measuring the changes in the micro-organism count at set time intervals for a set period and at a set temperature. NOTE This test can be used as a guideline to develop an in-house method during the development cycle of cosmetic products. In this case, the test can be modified or extended, or both, for example to make allowance for prior data and different variables (microbial strains, media, incubation conditions exposure time, etc.). Compliance criteria can be adapted to specific objectives. During the development stage of cosmetic products, other methods, where relevant, can be used to determine the preservation efficacy of formulations. 1.3 Procedure for evaluating the antimicrobial protection of the cosmetic product This procedure is based on careful consideration of the following points. — Results of the preservation efficacy test. Not all cosmetic products will require a preservation efficacy test (see Annex A and ISO 29621). — Formulation characteristics and data provided by the microbiological risk assessment (see ISO 29621). The analysis of the microbiological risk assessment is based on an overall approach. In particular, it integrates variables such as characteristics and composition of the formulation, its production conditions, the characteristics of the packaging in which the formulation will be delivered to the market place, recommendations for use of the cosmetic product and, when relevant, the area of application and the targeted user population (see Annex D).


Cosmetics -- Microbiology -- Detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

This International Standard gives general guidelines for the detection and identification of the specified micro-organism Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cosmetic products. Micro-organisms considered as specified in this International Standard might differ from country to country according to national practices or regulations. In order to ensure product quality and safety for consumers, it is advisable to perform an appropriate microbiological risk analysis to determine the types of cosmetic product to which this International Standard is applicable. Products considered to present a low microbiological risk include those with low water activity, hydro-alcoholic products, extreme pH values, etc. The method described in this International Standard is based on the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a non-selective liquid medium (enrichment broth), followed by isolation on a selective agar medium. Other methods may be appropriate, depending on the level of detection required. NOTE For the detection of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, subcultures can be performed on non-selective culture media followed by suitable identification steps (e.g. using identification kits). Because of the large variety of cosmetic products within this field of application, this method may not be appropriate in every detail for some products (e.g. certain water immiscible products). Other International Standards (ISO 18415 [10]) may be appropriate. Other methods (e.g. automated) may be substituted for the tests presented here provided that their equivalence has been demonstrated or the method has been otherwise validated.

Products considered to present a low microbiological risk include those with low water activity, hydro-alcoholic products, extreme pH values, etc. The method described in this International Standard is based on the detection of Staphylococcus aureus in a non-selective liquid medium (enrichment broth), followed by isolation on a selective agar medium. Other methods may be appropriate dependent on the level of detection required. NOTE For the detection of Staphylococcus aureus, subcultures can be performed on non-selective culture media followed by suitable identification steps (e.g. using identification kits). Because of the large variety of cosmetic products within this field of application, this method may not be appropriate for some products in every detail (e.g. certain water immiscible products). Other International Standards (ISO 18415 [10]) may be appropriate. Other methods (e.g. automated) may be substituted for the tests presented here provided that their equivalence has been demonstrated or the method has been otherwise validated

Information technology -- Security techniques -- Information security management systems -- Requirements

This International Standard specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving an information security management system within the context of the organization. This International Standard also includes requirements for the assessment and treatment of information security risks tailored to the needs of the organization. The requirements set out in this International Standard are generic and are intended to be applicable to all organizations, regardless of type, size or nature. Excluding any of the requirements specified in Clauses 4 to 10 is not acceptable when an organization claims conformity to this International Standard.


Information technology -- Security techniques -- Code of practice for information security controls

This International Standard gives guidelines for organizational information security standards and information security management practices including the selection, implementation and management of controls taking into consideration the organization’s information security risk environment(s). This International Standard is designed to be used by organizations that intend to: a) select controls within the process of implementing an Information Security Management System based on ISO/IEC 27001;[10] b) implement commonly accepted information security controls; c) develop their own information security management guidelines.


Thermal solar systems and components - Solar collectors - Part 1: General requirements

This European Standard specifies requirements on durability (including mechanical strength), reliability and safety for liquid heating solar collectors. It also includes provisions for evaluation of conformity to these requirements. It is not applicable to those collectors in which the thermal storage unit is an integral part of the collector to such an extent, that the collection process cannot be separated from the storage process for the purpose of making measurements of these two processes. !It is basically applicable to concentrating collectors; thermal performance testing as given in EN 12975-2:2006, 6.3. (quasi dynamic testing) is also applicable to most concentrating collector designs, from stationary non-imaging concentrators as CPCs to high concentrating tracking designs." Collectors that are custom-built (built in, roof integrated collectors that do not comprise factory made modules and are assembled directly on the place of installation) cannot be tested in their actual form for durability, reliability and thermal performance according to this standard. Instead, a module with the same structure as the ready collector is tested. The module gross area in the case of custom built collectors should be at least 2 m2. The test is valid only for larger collectors, than the tested module. For collectors the national and European Guidelines for Structural Planning and overhead glazing are not valid. Therefore this standard should be applied for the design of the static of the collector.


Thermal solar systems and components - Factory made systems - Part 1: General requirements

This European Standard specifies requirements on durability, reliability and safety for Factory Made thermal solar heating systems. The standard also includes provisions for evaluation of conformity to these requirements. The requirements in this standard apply to Factory Made solar systems as products. The installation of these systems itself is not considered, but requirements are given for the documentation for the installer and the user which is delivered with the system (see also 4.6).


Thermal solar systems and components - Factory made systems - Part 2: Test methods

This European Standard specifies test methods for validating the requirements for Factory Made Thermal Solar Heating Systems as specified in EN 12976-1. The standard also includes two test methods for thermal performance characterization by means of whole system testing.


Solar energy -- Vocabulary

This International Standard defines basic terms relating to solar energy. NOTE In addition to terms and definitions used in two of the three official ISO languages (English, French and Russian), this International Standard gives the equivalent terms and definitions in the German language; these are published under the responsibility of the member body for Germany (DIN). However, only the terms and definitions given in the official languages can be considered as ISO terms and definitions.


Solar heating -- Domestic water heating systems -- Part 2: Outdoor test methods for system performance characterization and yearly performance prediction of solar-only systems

This part of ISO 9459 establishes test procedures for characterizing the Performance of solar domestic water heating Systems operated without auxiliary boosting, and for predicting annual Performance in any given climatic and operating conditions, but only for an evening draw-off. A “black box” approach is adopted which involves no assumptions about the type of System under test; the procedures are therefore suitable for testing all types of Systems, including forced circulation, thermosiphon, freon-charged and integrated collector-storage Systems. This part of ISO 9459 is not intended to be used for testing solar heating Systems which have an auxiliary heater as an integral patt of the System, since the Operation of the auxiliary input may influence the Performance of the solar heating System. To quantify the interaction between the energy inputs, the test procedure described in ISO 9459-3 is recommended. This part of ISO 9459 applies to solar-only domestic water heating Systems designed to heat potable water to be supplied for domestic water usage and is not intended to be applied to other Systems. The test procedures are applicable only to Systems of 0,6 m3 of solar storage capacity or less. The test procedures in this part of ISO 9459 do not require the solar water heating System to be subjected to freezing conditions. Consequently, the energy consumed or lost by a System while operating in the freezeprotection mode is not determined. This part of ISO 9459 is not generally applicable to concentrating Systems. lt is not intended to be used for testing the individual components of the System, nor is it intended to abridge any safety or health requirements.
