Up-to-date lists and bibliographical references concerning such nationalstandards may be obtained on application to the Management Centre or to any CEN member.This European Standard exists in three official versions (English, French, German). A version in any other language made by translationunder the responsibility of a CEN member into its own language and notified to the Management Centre has the same status as the officialversions.CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.EUROPEAN COMMITTEE FOR STANDARDIZATIONCOMITÉ EUROPÉEN DE NORMALISATIONEUROPÄISCHES KOMITEE FÜR NORMUNGManagement Centre: rue de Stassart, 36

Further Directives andamendments to existing Directives are expected which could change the legislative requirements which thisstandard supports.
It is therefore strongly recommended that users of this standard refer to the latest relevantpublished Directive(s) before commencement of any of the test or tests described in this standard.The titles of other parts of this European Standard are as follows:EN 1186 Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs - Plastics –:Part 2Test methods for overall migration into olive oil by total immersionPart 3Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by total immersionPart 4Test methods for overall migration into olive oil by cellPart 5Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by cellPart 6Test methods for overall migration into olive oil using a pouchPart 7Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants using a pouchPart 8Test methods for overall migration into olive oil by article fillingPart 9Test methods for overall migration into aqueous food simulants by article fillingPart 10Test methods for overall migration into olive oil (modified method for use in cases whereincomplete extraction of olive oil occurs)Part 11Test methods for overall migration into mixtures of

Annex C is for information onlyAccording to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain,Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.SIST EN 1186-1:2002

Indeed, owing to the practical difficulties inherent in testing with involatile extractants such asfats and the multitude of applications in which plastics articles come into contact with food, there are many methodsand permitted variations to methods in this standard.EN 1186-1 is intended to give advice on the selection of the most appropriate type of test, test conditions and testmethod for a given application of a plastics article and is intended to be read in its entirety before testing protocolsare finalized.
For most plastics articles methods in EN 1186-2 to EN 1186-9 are suitable, according to the form inwhich the article is tested.
Subsequent Parts of this standard are intended to be used in conjunction with themethods in EN 1186-2 to EN 1186-9 for more difficult samples and at other temperatures.The general criteria for the operation and assessment of testing laboratories as well as the general criteria forlaboratory accreditation bodies are set out in EN 45001, EN 45002 and EN 45003.
It is recommended thatlaboratories using this standard validate their procedures by testing certified reference samples and by taking partin a proficiency scheme.
Reference plastics samples with well characterized values for overall migration into thefatty food simulant olive oil have been prepared as part of a programme sponsored by the Standards,Measurement & Testing Programme of the European Commission, DG XII.
Suitable proficiency schemes areoperated in Germany and in the United Kingdom, for example the German Assessment Scheme for Food Testing(GAFT) and the Food Analysis Performance Assessment Scheme (FAPAS) conducted by the Central ScienceLaboratory of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food.SIST EN 1186-1:2002
