A European Standardization Mandate is a formal request from the European Commission to the European Standardization Organizations (CEN, CENELEC, and ETSI) to develop European standards (ENs) in support of EU legislation and policies. Mandates are issued under Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 and help ensure that products and services meet the essential requirements set out in EU directives and regulations.
M/422 REV1 is a European Standardization Mandate titled "Mandate for standardisation addressed to CEN in the field of methods of analysis for heavy metals and iodine in food". Mandate for standardisation addressed to CEN in the field of methods of analysis for heavy metals and iodine in food There are 8 standards developed under this mandate.
Standards developed in response to a mandate and cited in the Official Journal of the European Union become "harmonized standards". Products manufactured in compliance with harmonized standards benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the corresponding EU directive or regulation, facilitating CE marking and market access across the European Economic Area.
This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of tin in foodstuffs and canned foods by flame and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) after pressurized digestion. The collaborative study included foodstuffs having mass fractions of tin ranging from 43 mg/kg to 260 mg/kg (Flame-AAS) and from 2,5 mg/kg to 269 mg/kg (Graphite Furnace AAS).

This European Standard specifies a method for the determination of arsenic, cadmium, mercury and lead in foodstuffs by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The collaborative study included foodstuffs having an arsenic mass fraction ranging from 0,06 mg/kg to 21,5 mg/kg dry matter (d. m.), cadmium ranging from 0,03 mg/kg to 28,3 mg/kg d. m., mercury ranging from 0,04 mg/kg to 0,56 mg/kg d. m. and lead from 0,01 mg/kg to 2,4 mg/kg d. m.
