This document specifies methods for determining fracture toughness in terms of K, δ, J and R-curves for homogeneous metallic materials subjected to quasistatic loading. Specimens are notched, precracked by fatigue and tested under slowly increasing displacement. The fracture toughness is determined for individual specimens at or after the onset of ductile crack extension or at the onset of ductile crack instability or unstable crack extension. In cases where cracks grow in a stable manner under ductile tearing conditions, a resistance curve describing fracture toughness as a function of crack extension is measured. In some cases in the testing of ferritic materials, unstable crack extension can occur by cleavage or ductile crack initiation and growth, interrupted by cleavage extension. The fracture toughness at crack arrest is not covered by this document. Special testing requirements and analysis procedures are necessary when testing weldments, and these are described in ISO 15653 which is complementary to this document. Statistical variability of the results strongly depends on the fracture type, for instance, fracture toughness associated with cleavage fracture in ferritic steels can show large variation. For applications that require high reliability, a statistical approach can be used to quantify the variability in fracture toughness in the ductile-to-brittle transition region, such as that given in ASTM E1921. However, it is not the purpose of this document to specify the number of tests to be carried out nor how the results of the tests are to be applied or interpreted.

Human-centred quality is an outcome and a measure of the extent to which requirements for usability, accessibility, user experience and avoidance of harm from use are met. This document describes the rationale, principles and activities needed to improve the human-centred quality of an organisation’s products, systems and services, and the significant business benefits that can be achieved. It provides requirements and recommendations for the principles that management needs to implement for achieving human-centred quality. The principles and activities address the needs of people directly interacting with the outputs of the development process as well as other people who are stakeholders in their operation. While the document is not intended to be directly applicable to organizational design and the design of work systems, it can be adapted for these purposes. It does not provide in detail coverage of the methods and techniques; processes that implement the human centred design approach are described in ISO 9241-220. This document does not address domain-specific health or safety requirements. The information in this document is intended for use by those responsible for planning and managing projects that develop products and services. It provides a framework for ergonomists and human factors professionals involved in human-centred activities to structure their work for integration in project planning and governance. This document operates within the framework of ISO 26800, that sets out the overall principles of ergonomics. The application of detailed ergonomics/human factors knowledge in specific domains can be used in conjunction with this document. These issues are addressed in a number of other TC 159 standards including parts of ISO 9241, ISO 6385, ISO 20282-1, ISO 11428 and ISO TS 20646.

This document specifies a test method (phase 2/step 1) and the minimum requirements for sporicidal activity of chemical disinfectant products that form a homogeneous, physically stable preparation in hard water and that are used in food, industrial, domestic and institutional areas, excluding areas and situations where disinfection is medically indicated and excluding products used on living tissues except those for hand hygiene in the above considered areas. This European Standard applies at least to the following: a) processing, distribution and retailing of: 1) food of animal origin: - milk and milk products; - meat and meat products; - fish, seafood, and related products; - eggs and egg products; - animal feeds; - etc.; 2) food of vegetable origin: - beverages; - fruits, vegetables and derivatives (including sugar, distillery, etc.); - flour, milling and baking; - animal feeds; - etc.; b) institutional and domestic areas: - catering establishments; - public areas; - public transports; - schools; - nurseries; - shops; - sports rooms; - waste containers (bins, etc.); - hotels; - dwellings; - clinically non sensitive areas of hospitals; - offices; - etc.; c) other industrial areas: - packaging material; - biotechnology (yeast, proteins, enzymes, etc.); - pharmaceutical; - cosmetics and toiletries; - textiles; - space industry, computer industry; - etc. Using this European Standard, it is not possible to determine the sporicidal activity of undiluted product as some dilution is always produced by adding the inoculum and interfering substance. Products can only be tested at a concentration of 80 % or less. NOTE The method described is intended to determine the activity of commercial formulations or active substances on spores in the conditions in which they are used.

ISO 9308-2:2012 specifies a method for the enumeration of E. coli and coliform bacteria in water. The method is based on the growth of target organisms in a liquid medium and calculation of the "Most Probable Number" (MPN) of organisms by reference to MPN tables. This method can be applied to all types of water, including those containing an appreciable amount of suspended matter and high background counts of heterotrophic bacteria. However it must not be used for the enumeration of coliform bacteria in marine water. When using for the enumeration of E. coli in marine waters, a 1→10 dilution in sterile water is typically required, although the method has been shown to work well with some marine waters that have a lower than normal concentration of salts. In the absence of data to support the use of the method without dilution, a 1→10 dilution is used. This method relies upon the detection of E. coli based upon expression of the enzyme b‑D‑glucuronidase and consequently does not detect many of the enterohaemorhagic strains of E. coli, which do not typically express this enzyme. Additionally, there are a small number of other E. coli strains that do not express b‑D‑glucuronidase. The choice of tests used in the detection and confirmation of the coliform group of bacteria, including E. coli, can be regarded as part of a continuous sequence. The extent of confirmation with a particular sample depends partly on the nature of the water and partly on the reasons for the examination. The test described in ISO 9308-2:2012 provides a confirmed result with no requirement for further confirmation of positive wells.
