Water quality - Freshwater algal growth inhibition test with unicellular green algae (ISO 8692:2004)

ISO 8692:2004 specifies a method for the determination of the growth inhibition of unicellular green algae by substances and mixtures contained in water or by wastewater. The method is applicable for substances that are easily soluble in water.
With modifications to this method, as described in ISO 14442 and ISO 5667-16, the inhibitory effects of poorly soluble organic and inorganic materials, volatile compounds, heavy metals and waste water can be tested.
A rapid algal growth inhibition screening test for wastewater is also included.

Wasserbeschaffenheit - Süßwasseralgen-Wachstumshemmtest mit einzelligen Grünalgen (ISO 8692:2004)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Wachstumshemmung von einzelligen Grünalgen durch Substanzen oder Substanzmischungen in Wasser oder durch Abwasser fest.
Das Verfahren wird für in Wasser leicht lösliche Stoffe eingesetzt.
ANMERKUNG 1   Unter Berücksichtigung der Modifikationen, wie sie in ISO 14442 und ISO 5667-16 beschrieben sind, können auch die wachstumshemmenden Effekte von schwer löslichen und anorganischen Stoffen, von flüchtigen Verbindungen Schwermetallen und Abwasser untersucht werden.
ANMERKUNG 2   Ein Screening-Test für die Bestimmung der Wachstumshemmung von Algen durch Abwasser ist in Anhang A beschrieben.

Qualité de l'eau - Essai d'inhibition de la croissance des algues d'eau douce avec des algues vertes unicellulaires (ISO 8692:2004)

L'ISO 8692:2004 spécifie une méthode de détermination de l'inhibition de la croissance des algues vertes unicellulaires par des substances et des mélanges contenus dans l'eau ou par des eaux résiduaires. Cette méthode peut être utilisée avec des substances aisément solubles dans l'eau.
En apportant à cette méthode les modifications décrites dans l'ISO 14442 et l'ISO 5667-16, il est possible de vérifier les effets inhibiteurs des substances inorganiques et organiques faiblement solubles, des composés volatils, des métaux lourds et des eaux résiduaires.
Un essai rapide de détection de l'inhibition de la croissance des algues par des eaux résiduaires est également inclus.

ISO 8692:2004(E) iv © ISO 2004 – All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 8692 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 147, Water quality, Subcommittee SC 5, Biological methods. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 8692:1989), which has been technically revised.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 8692:2004(E) © ISO 2004 – All rights reserved 1 Water quality — Freshwater algal growth inhibition test with unicellular green algae WARNING — Persons using this International Standard should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This International Standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the growth inhibition of unicellular green algae by substances and mixtures contained in water or by wastewater. This method is applicable for substances that are easily soluble in water. With modifications to this method, as described in ISO 14442 and ISO 5667-16, the inhibitory effects of poorly soluble organic and inorganic materials, volatile compounds, heavy metals and waste water can be tested. A rapid algal growth inhibition screening test for wastewater is included in Annex A. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 5667-16:1998, Water — Sampling — Part 16: Guidance on biotesting of samples ISO 14442:1999, Water quality — Guidelines for algal growth inhibition tests with poorly soluble materials, volatile compounds, metals and waste water 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 cell density x number of cells per unit volume of medium NOTE Cell density is expressed in cells per millilitre. 3.2 specific growth rate µ=proportional rate of increase in cell density per unit of time: 1ddxxtµ= SIST EN ISO 8692:2005

ISO 8692:2004(E) 2 © ISO 2004 – All rights reserved where x is the cell density, expressed in cells per millilitre; t is the time, expressed in days NOTE Specific growth rate is expressed in inverse days (day−1). 3.3 growth medium mixture of water and nutrients in which algal cells are incubated, which is used for pre-cultures and controls 3.4 test sample aqueous sample (e.g. wastewater), chemical substance or mixture for which the inhibitory effects on the growth of algae are determined 3.5 test medium mixture of water, nutrients and test sample
3.6 test batch mixture of water, nutrients and test sample (test medium 3.5), inoculated with algae 3.7 control mixture of water, nutrients (growth medium 3.3) without test sample, inoculated with algae 3.8 effective concentration ErCx concentration of test sample which results in a reduction of x % in the specific growth rate relative to the controls NOTE To unambiguously denote an EC value deriving from growth rate it is proposed to use the symbol “ErC”. 4 Principle Monospecies algal strains are cultured for several generations in a defined medium containing a range of concentrations of the test sample, prepared by mixing appropriate quantities of growth medium, test sample and an inoculum of exponentially growing algal cells. The test batches are incubated for a period of (72 ± 2) h during which the cell density in each test solution is measured at least every 24 h. Inhibition is measured as a reduction in growth rate, relative to control cultures grown under identical conditions. 5 Reagents and media 5.1 Test organism, using either of the following planktonic fresh water algae species: a) Desmodesmus subspicatus1) (86.81 SAG). b) Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (Korshikov) Hindak2) (ATCC 22662, CCAP 278/4 or 61.81 SAG).

However, a frequent sub-culturing is necessary (once a week) to prevent failure of growth. The stock culture can be maintained for extended periods on richer algal media such as those recommended by the culture collection. Alternatively algae can be stored for several months in alginate beads4), without losing their viability[1]. The algae can be easily liberated from the algal beads when needed to perform the toxicity tests. 5.2 Water, deionized or of equivalent purity (conductivity < 10 µS/cm), for use in the preparation of the growth medium and test substance solutions. Take special care to avoid contamination of the water by inorganic or organic substances during preparation and storage. Equipment made of copper shall not be used.
