ISO 10253:2006(E) iv © ISO 2006 – 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 10253 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 10253:1995), which has been technically revised.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 10253:2006(E) © ISO 2006 – All rights reserved 1Water quality — Marine algal growth inhibition test with Skeletonema costatum and Phaeodactylum tricornutum 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. IMPORTANT — It is absolutely essential that tests conducted according to this International Standard be carried out by suitably trained staff. 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the inhibition of growth of the unicellular marine algae Skeletonema costatum and Phaeodactylum tricornutum by substances and mixtures contained in sea water. The method can be used for testing substances that are readily soluble in water and are not significantly degraded or eliminated in any other way from the test medium. NOTE With modifications, as described in ISO 14442 and ISO 5667-16, the inhibitory effects of poorly soluble organic and inorganic materials, volatile compounds, metal compounds, effluents, marine water samples and elutriates of sediments can be tested. 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, Water quality — Sampling — Part 16: Guidance on biotesting of samples ISO 14442, 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 number of cells per unit volume of medium (x cells/ml)

The test solutions are incubated for a period of 72 h ± 2 h, during which the cell density in ea
