Water quality - Detection of Salmonella spp
2012
Document Number: NL ISO 19250 : 2012
Sector: Food Technology
TC: NL TC 147
ICS: 07.100.20
This International Standard specifies a method for the detection of Salmonella spp. (presumptive or confirmed) in water samples. It is possible that, for epidemiological purposes or during outbreak investigations, other media are also required. WARNING — It is possible that the method does not recover all Salmonella ser. Typhi and ser. Paratyphi. NOTE For a semi-quantitative approach, most probable number (MPN) tests can be performed using appropriate sample volumes. For these cases, the volume of the buffered peptone water is adjusted accordingly.
