Standard Specification for Eretmocerus eremicus Rose and Zolnerowich (Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae) (Withdrawn 2019)

Standard Specification for <i>Eretmocerus eremicus</i> Rose and Zolnerowich (<i>Hymenoptera: Aphelinidae</i>) (Withdrawn 2019)

ABSTRACT
This specification describes a method for determining whether the quantity and quality of adult Eretmocerus eremicus in a shipment adhere to quantity and quality specifications. Specifically, the test describes methods for determining whether the number of adult E. eremicus that are capable of flight meets or exceeds the package claim. The test also allows the purity of shipments to be determined. Included are referenced documents, a description of standard terminology, specifications, and the test method. Critical values for three sample sizes (3, 5, and 10 cards) and corresponding probabilities of error are given.
SCOPE

The test also allows the purity of shipments to be determined. Included are referenced documents, a description of standard terminology, specifications, and the test method.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

Standard Test Method for Sampling Granular Carriers and Granular Pesticides

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 This procedure was designed principally for clay, corncob, nut shell, or sand granular carriers and granular pesticide products but need not be limited to these materials. There may be more appropriate sampling methods for other types of granular carriers and products.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method presents general procedures for sampling and sampling practice for granular carriers and granular pesticides.  
1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

ASTM E727/E727M-08(2020)(Test Method)
Standard Test Methods for Determining Bulk Density of Granular Carriers and Granular Pesticides

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 These test methods were designed principally for clay, corncob, nut shell, paper-based or sand granular carriers, and granular pesticide products, but need not be limited to these materials. There may be more appropriate test methods for other types of granular carriers or pesticide products. The differences in the following test methods are slight, but they offer a choice of a recognized test procedure.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods are used to determine bulk density of granular carriers and granular pesticides by measuring either free-fall bulk density (Test Method A) or loose-fill bulk density (Test Method B).  
1.2 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound units are to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated in each system may not be exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the standard.  
1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard statements see Section 4.

ASTM E1053-20(Practice)
Standard Practice to Assess Virucidal Activity of Chemicals Intended for Disinfection of Inanimate, Nonporous Environmental Surfaces

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This practice may be used to determine the effectiveness of liquid, aerosols/foams, and trigger-spray products against designated prototype viruses.  
5.2 The number of lots of the test substance and the number of replicates in each test will depend on the requirements of the target regulatory agency.  
5.3 Certain regulatory agencies may require additional testing using other carrier tests for product registration purposes.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice is used to evaluate the virucidal efficacy of liquid, aerosol, or trigger-spray microbicides intended for use on inanimate, nonporous environmental surfaces. This practice may be employed with most viruses, which can be grown in cultured cells.2 However, other host systems (for example, embryonic eggs) may be used with proper justification and documentation.  
1.2 This practice should be performed only by those trained in microbiological and virological techniques in facilities designed and equipped for work with infectious agents at the appropriate biosafety level.  
1.3 It is the responsibility of the investigator to determine whether Good Laboratory Practice regulations (GLPs) are required and to follow them where appropriate (40 CFR, Part 160 for EPA submissions and 21 CFR, Part 58 for FDA submissions). Refer to the appropriate regulatory agency for performance standards of virucidal efficacy.  
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. The user should consult a reference for laboratory safety recommendations.2

ASTM E1052-20(Practice)
Standard Practice to Assess the Activity of Microbicides against Viruses in Suspension

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
5.1 This practice is to determine if a test substance can inactivate viruses in suspension.  
5.2 Regulatory agencies may require additional testing using in vitro (Practice E1053, Test Method E2197) or in vivo (Test Method E1838) carrier tests for product registration purposes.
SCOPE
1.1 This practice is intended to demonstrate the virucidal activity of test substances with viruses in suspension.  
1.2 It is the responsibility of the investigator to determine whether Good Laboratory Practice regulations (GLPs) are required and to follow them where appropriate (40 CFR, Part 160 for EPA submissions and 21 CFR, Part 58 for FDA submissions).  
1.3 Refer to the appropriate regulatory agency for performance standards of virucidal efficacy.  
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. The user should consult a reference for the laboratory safety recommendations.2
