This document provides relevant characteristics and typical values for polystyrene (PS) recyclates intended for groups of defined applications (the product families). The relevant characteristics and typical values for the different product families are derived from the performance requirements of the products belonging to that family, including requirements for product manufacturing processes where applicable.

This document applies to plastic recyclates intended to be used for the manufacturing of (intermediate) products. This document is intended to be used in conjunction with part 1 of this standard series, which describes the designation system for plastic recyclates. The designation system allows comparison between recycled and virgin material at the level of the polymer’s defined designatory properties.

NOTE 1 Examples of designations of plastic recyclates are given in the Annex A.

NOTE 2 The selection of relevant properties for a product family is based on EN ISO 10350 1, extended with specific properties related to plastic recyclates.

ISO 899-2:2003 specifies a method for determining the flexural creep of plastics in the form of standard test specimens under specified conditions such as those of pretreatment, temperature and humidity. It applies only to a simple freely supported beam loaded at mid-span (three-point-loading test). The method is suitable for use with rigid and semi-rigid non-reinforced, filled and fibre-reinforced plastics materials (see ISO 472 for definitions) in the form of dumb-bell-shaped test specimens moulded directly or machined from sheets or moulded articles. NOTE The method may be unsuitable for certain fibre-reinforced materials due to differences in fibre orientation. The method is intended to provide data for engineering-design and research and development purposes. Data for engineering-design purposes requires the use of extensometers to measure the gauge length of the specimen. Data for research or quality-control purposes may use the change in distance between the grips (nominal extension). Flexural creep may vary significantly with differences in specimen preparation and dimensions and in the test environment. The thermal history of the test specimen can also have profound effects on its creep behaviour (see Annex A). Consequently, when precise comparative results are required, these factors must be carefully controlled. If flexural-creep properties are to be used for engineering-design purposes, the plastics materials should be tested over a broad range of stresses, times and environmental conditions. The method may not be suitable for determining the flexural creep of rigid cellular plastics (attention is drawn in this respect to ISO 1209-1, Cellular plastics, rigid -- Flexural tests -- Part 1: Bending test, and ISO 1209-2, Cellular plastics, rigid -- Flexural tests -- Part 2: Determination of flexural properties).

This document is applicable to pure cultures of STEC. The present standard describes the characterization of STEC strains, isolated from any source. In particular, the characterization of STEC strains described here regard: - subtyping of the Stx-coding genes; - determination of the presence of eae gene; - determination of the presence of aggR gene; - identification of the presence of genes associated to the following serogroups: O157, O26, O111, O103, O145, O121 and O45. The full characterization of the isolated STEC strains is achieved by performing all the modules described here. The characterization scheme is not sequential, and the different modules can be implemented separately based on specific needs (e.g. Regulatory needs, Competent Authority’s requests, clients’ request). Alternative methods may be used, including Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS), provided these are verified according to the reference standard ISO 16140-2.

This document specifies a method of testing the laser-induced ignition and damage of medical beam delivery systems to allow checking of suitable products according to the classification system. NOTE 1 Take care when interpreting these results, since the direct applicability of the results of this test method to the clinical situation has not been fully established. NOTE 2 Users of products tested by this method are cautioned that the laser will be wavelength sensitive and tested at the wavelength for which it is intended to be used. If tested using other wavelengths, the power settings and modes of beam delivery need to be explicitly stated. CAUTION — This test method can involve hazardous materials, operations and equipment. This document provides advice on minimizing some of the risks associated with its use but does not purport to address all such risks. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

This document specifies a real-time PCR procedure for the quantification of the amount of roe deer DNA relative to total mammalian and poultry DNA in meat and meat products. The results of this assay for roe deer are expressed in terms of roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) haploid genome copy numbers relative to mammalian total haploid genome copy numbers. The content of roe deer can also be expressed as a percentage by mass using gravimetrically prepared calibration material from meat mixtures or model samples. The method has been previously validated in a collaborative trial and applied to DNA extracted from samples that consist of raw roe deer meat in a raw pig meat background as well as raw and boiled sausages. The limit of detection of the roe deer PCR has been determined experimentally to be at least 5 target gene copies or 0,03 % roe deer. The compliance assessment process is not part of this document.
