Co-ordination on microbiological Standards - Register of work
items of common interest
This CEN Report was approved by CEN on 16 June 2001. It has been drawn up by the Technical Committee CEN/CS SUBSECTOR S99.
CEN members are the national standards bodies of Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece,
Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

Scope
This CEN Report is designed to give a view of CEN Standards activity containing microbiological
aspects. It takes the form of a register of work items. The register includes current work items and
published Standards from TCs which are working on standards containing microbiological aspects.
The information in this register was produced on February 2001.
The intended audience of this Report is those people working in Standardization who have an
interest in microbiological aspects. It will be particularly useful for those people working on a
subject with microbiological aspects, who wish to co-ordinate their efforts and therefore avoid
duplication of work. In particular, this report is intended to assist in the evolution of common terms
and definitions in standards that involve microbiological aspects.
The register is not exhaustive. There may be other CEN TCs with microbiological aspects but
these are not known at the time of writing this CEN Report.
Not all the information is available for all the work items listed.
Additional notes to the table
The degree to which each of the work items and standards listed includes microbiological aspects
will vary. Individual drafts and published Standards should be consulted if a title listed below
indicates that the work may be of interest.
CEN/TC 216 Chemical disinfectants and antiseptics: By the nature of the subject covered by
CEN/TC 216 all of its work items (present and future) can be considered to have microbiological
aspects.
Further research is recommended for people needing complete and more detailed information on
microbiological activity in Standardization.
