CEN - European Committee for Standardization
CEN, the European Committee for Standardization, is an association that brings together the National Standardization Bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for the development of European Standards and other technical documents in relation to various kinds of products, materials, services and processes.
CEN supports standardization activities in relation to a wide range of fields and sectors including: air and space, chemicals, construction, consumer products, defence and security, energy, the environment, food and feed, health and safety, healthcare, ICT, machinery, materials, pressure equipment, services, smart living, transport and packaging.
This document specifies a procedure for the parallel determination of glycidol together with 2-MCPD and 3-MCPD present in bound or free form in oils and fats. The method is based on alkaline-catalysed ester cleavage, transformation of the released glycidol into monobromopropanediol (MBPD) and derivatisation of the derived free diols (MCPD and MBPD) with phenylboronic acid (PBA). Though free MCPD and glycidol are supposed to be present in fats and oils in low to negligible quantities only, in the event that free analytes are present, they would contribute proportionately to the results. The results always being the sum of the free and the bound form of a single analyte.
This method is applicable to solid and liquid fats and oils. This document can also apply to animal fats and used frying oils and fats, but a validation study is undertaken before the analysis of these matrices.
Milk and milk products (or fat coming from milk and milk products) are excluded from the scope of this document.

This document specifies a real-time PCR procedure for the quantitation of the amount of equine DNA relative to total mammalian DNA in a raw meat sample.
Results of this equine assay are expressed in terms of equine (Equus genus) haploid genome copy numbers relative to total mammalian haploid genome copy numbers. This assay is specific for representatives of the genus Equus and therefore detects horse, mule, donkey and zebra DNA.
The method has been previously validated in a collaborative study and applied to DNA extracted from samples that consist of raw horse meat in a raw beef (meat) background.
The limit of detection has been determined experimentally to be at least 17 horse haploid genome equivalents (HGE) for both the equine PCR and the mammalian PCR based on the lowest dilution on the respective calibration curves through single laboratory validation. The lowest relative horse content of the target sequence included in the collaborative study was a mass fraction of 0,1 % based on gravimetrically prepared raw horse muscle tissue in a raw beef muscle tissue background.

— type testing conditions, test procedures and test requirements;
— analyser performance requirements;
— evaluation of the type testing results;
— evaluation of the uncertainty of the measurement results of the NOx analyser based on the type testing results.
Clause 9 to Clause 11 and Annex F and Annex G are directed towards monitoring networks performing the practical measurements of NOx in ambient air. These sections contain information about:
— initial installation of the analyser in the monitoring network and acceptance testing;
— ongoing quality assurance/quality control;
— calculation and reporting of measurement results;
— evaluation of the uncertainty of measurement results under practical monitoring conditions.

This document specifies the syntax and semantics of data objects in the field of electronic fee collection (EFC). The definitions of data types and assignment of semantics are provided in accordance with the abstract syntax notation one (ASN.1) technique, as specified in ISO/IEC 8824-1. This document defines:
— ASN.1 (data) types within the field of EFC;
— ASN.1 (data) types of a more general use that are used more specifically in standards related to EFC.
This document does not seek to define ASN.1 (data) types that are primarily related to other fields that operate in conjunction with EFC, such as cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS), the financial sector, etc.

This document describes the calculation of:
— mass flow for sizing pressure relief devices for parts of refrigerating systems;
— discharge capacities for pressure relief valves and other pressure relief devices in refrigerating systems including the necessary data for sizing these when relieving to atmosphere or to part of the refrigerating system at lower pressure;
— the pressure loss in the inlet and outlet lines of pressure relief valves and other pressure relief devices and includes the necessary data.
This document specifies the requirements for selection of pressure relief devices to prevent excessive pressure due to internal and external heat sources, the sources of increasing pressure (e.g. compressor, heaters, etc.) and thermal expansion of trapped liquid.
NOTE The term "refrigerating system" used in this document includes heat pumps.

This document specifies general requirements for non-active surgical implants, hereafter referred to as implants.
This document is not applicable to dental implants, dental restorative materials, transendodontic and transradicular implants, intra-ocular lenses and implants utilizing viable animal or human tissue.
With regard to safety, this document specifies requirements for intended performance, design attributes, materials, design evaluation, manufacture, sterilization, packaging and information supplied by the manufacturer, and tests to demonstrate compliance with these requirements.
Additional requirements applicable to specific implants or implant families are given or referred to in Level 2 and Level 3 standards.
NOTE 1 This document does not require that the manufacturer have a quality management system in place. However, many regulatory authorities require the application of a quality management system, such as that described in ISO 13485, to ensure that the implant achieves its intended performance and safety.
NOTE 2 In this document, when not otherwise specified, the term "implant" refers to each individual component of a system or a modular implant, provided separately or as a set of components, as well as to all ancillary implants or associated implants designed for improving the intended performance.

This document defines the procedures as well as the means to implement adequate lighting, with regard to the exhibition lighting and the conservation policy. This also includes security and cleaning lighting. It takes visual, exhibition and conservation aspects into account and it also discusses the implications of the lighting design on the safeguarding of cultural heritage. This document gives recommendations on luminous exposure values. It aims to provide a tool for setting up a common European policy and a guide to help curators, conservators and project managers to assess the correct lighting that can ensure the safeguarding of the objects. This document covers indoor lighting for heritage objects on exhibition in both public and private sites and does not consider lighting in other cultural heritage contexts such as open-air collections, etc.
