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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

Committees, which are national associations composed of representatives of dairy-related national
interest groups including dairy farmers, dairy processing industry, dairy suppliers, academics and
governments/food control authorities.
ISO and IDF collaborate closely on all matters of standardization relating to methods of analysis
and sampling for milk and milk products. Since 2001, ISO and IDF jointly publish their International
Standards using the logos and reference numbers of both organizations.
