This document specifies a method to assess the ultrafine bubble (UFB) number concentration in order to find whether the number concentration of UFB generated by users is in the adequate range for promoting the barley seed germination stably irrespective of seed variety conforming to ISO 23016-2 and ISO/TR 23016-3.

Overview

ISO 23016-4:2023 - Fine bubble technology - Agricultural applications - Part 4 defines a standardized test method to evaluate ultrafine bubble (UFB) number concentration needed to stably promote barley seed germination irrespective of variety. The standard helps users verify that UFB water produced by their generation system falls within an effective concentration range for accelerating germination, reducing variability between seed varieties and ensuring reproducible outcomes.

Key topics and technical requirements

Scope: Assessment of air UFB water and the UFB generating system to confirm number concentrations that promote barley seed germination in line with ISO 23016‑2 and ISO/TR 23016‑3.

Sample and water quality: Use of distilled raw water meeting ISO 23016‑2 quality (A2) and UFB water stored/transported per ISO 21255.

Measurement of UFBs: Size, quantity and concentration must be measured. The document references particle tracking analysis (PTA) instrumentation examples (measuring range ~50 nm–1 000 nm) and analysis software settings for reproducible counts.

Test approach: Generate two UFB waters with different number concentrations (UFB1 > UFB2). Measure germination kinetics by fitting S‑curve regression and determining median germination time (T50) for each treatment and control.

Decision logic: Three outcome cases guide selection:

Case 1: UFB1 produces greater acceleration than UFB2 and both beat control - choose UFB2 to avoid potential negative effects at higher concentrations.
Case 2: UFB1 and UFB2 give similar promotion - both reach upper effective range; choose UFB2.
Case 3: Higher UFB1 suppresses germination versus UFB2 - indicates excessive concentration; select the lower concentration.

Statistical validation: Use regression-derived T50 and 95% confidence intervals (sum of squared residuals) to determine significant differences between treatments.

Applications and users

Practical applications include:

Optimization and validation of UFB generation systems used in seed priming and nursery operations.

Research on fine bubble agricultural efficacy and dose–response across barley varieties.

Quality assurance for agri‑tech providers, seed companies and agronomists integrating UFB treatments into production.

Regulatory bodies and certification laboratories developing reproducible test results.

Who will use it:

UFB generator manufacturers, agronomists, seed technologists, agricultural researchers, and QA labs seeking standardized methods to quantify UFB number concentration for consistent barley germination outcomes.
