This document specifies a qualitative procedure to qualifying leather animal species of (fibrous) protein from leather by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer (MS). The composition of other fibres can be measured by methods described in the ISO 1833 series. Both results are then combined to determine the whole composition of fibres (see Annex C as an example of mixtures of (fibrous) protein from leather and polyester). The method is based on a preliminary identification, by light microscopy, of all fibres in a blend on the basis of their morphology, according to ISO/TR 11827.

ISO 5403-2:2011 specifies a method for determining the dynamic water resistance of leather by means of repeated angular compression. It is applicable to all flexible leathers but is particularly suitable for leathers intended for footwear applications. It uses a Maeser-type machine and includes an option for electronic detection.

This document describes a risk management approach, called Risk Analysis and Biocontamination Control (RABC), designed to enable laundries to continuously ensure the microbiological quality of laundry processed textiles. The RABC approach applies to laundry market sectors where it is necessary to control biocontamination, e.g. pharmaceuticals, medical devices, food, healthcare and cosmetics. The RABC approach excludes those aspects relating to worker safety and sterility of the final product.

This document specifies the method for the determination of extractable alkylphenols (AP) without derivatization step in textile and textile products.
