This document deals with the indoor environmental parameters for thermal environment, indoor air quality, lighting and acoustic. It explains how to use ISO 17772-1 for specifying indoor environmental input parameters for building system design and energy performance calculations. This document: — specifies methods for long-term evaluation of the indoor environment obtained as a result of calculations or measurements; — specifies criteria for measurements which can be used if required to measure compliance by inspection; — identifies parameters to be used by monitoring and displaying the indoor environment in existing buildings. This document is applicable where the criteria for indoor environment are set by human occupancy and where the production or process does not have a major impact on indoor environment. It explains how different categories of criteria for the indoor environment can be used.

This document specifies a method for the selective enumeration of bifidobacteria in milk products by using a colony-count technique at 37 °C under anaerobic conditions. The method is applicable to milk products, such as fermented (e.g. yoghurts) and non-fermented milks (e.g. pasteurized milks, skim milks, whey protein concentrates), milk powders and formulae (e.g. infant formulae, follow-up formulae for older infants, products for young children) where these microorganisms are present and viable, in combination with other lactic acid bacteria or alone. The method is also applicable to starter and probiotic cultures. For proposed quality criteria of dairy products, see, for example, CXS 243-2003. Bifidobacteria used in milk products usually belong to the following species (e.g. References [7] and [10]): — Bifidobacterium adolescentis; — B. animalis subsp. animalis; — B. animalis subsp. lactis; — B. bifidum; — B. breve; — B. longum subsp. infantis; — B. longum subsp. longum.

ISO 8537:2016 specifies requirements and test methods for empty, sterile, single-use syringes, with or without needles, made of plastic materials and intended solely for the injection of insulin, with which the syringes are filled by the end user. This International Standard covers syringes intended for single-use only in humans and with insulins of various concentrations. The insulin syringes specified in this International Standard are intended for use (i.e. insulin injection) immediately after filling and are not intended to contain insulin for extended periods of time. ISO 8537:2016 excludes single-use syringes made of glass, syringes for use with power-driven syringe pumps, syringes that are pre-filled by the manufacturer, and syringes intended to be stored after filling (e.g. in a kit intended for filling by a pharmacist).

ISO 7886-1:2017 specifies requirements and test methods for verifying the design of empty sterile single-use hypodermic syringes, with or without needle, made of plastic or other materials and intended for the aspiration and injection of fluids after filling by the end-users.

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.
