AS 5013.8.1:2018 PDF
Adopts ISO21528-1:2017, which specifies a method, with enrichment, for the detection of Enterobacteriaceae.
This document is intended to provide general guidance for the examination of products not dealt with by existing International Standards and to be taken into account by organizations preparing microbiological test methods for application to foods or animal feeding stuffs. Because of the large variety of products within this field of application, these guidelines may not be appropriate in every detail for certain products, and for some other products it may be necessary to use different methods.
Nevertheless, it is hoped that in all cases, every attempt will be made to apply the guidelines provided as far as possible and that deviations from them will only be made if absolutely necessary for technical reasons.
The main changes, listed in the foreword, introduced in this document compared to ISO 21528-1:2004 are considered as major (see ISO 17468).
The harmonization of test methods cannot be immediate, and for certain groups of products, International Standards and/or national standards may already exist that do not comply with this horizontal method. It is hoped that when such standards are reviewed, they will be changed to comply with this document so that eventually the only remaining departures from this horizontal method will be those necessary for well-established technical reasons.
