ISO 2447:1998 PDF

Overview

ISO 2447:1998 is an international standard specifying the determination of tin content in fruit and vegetable products. Developed by ISO Technical Committee 34 (Agricultural Food Products) and Subcommittee SC 3 (Fruit and Vegetable Products), this method is essential for assessing tin levels to ensure product safety and compliance with regulatory limits. The standard replaces the first edition from 1974, reflecting technical updates to improve accuracy and reliability.

This standardized chemical analysis method applies to fruit and vegetable products that may contain trace amounts of copper, lead, zinc, and phosphorus within specified limits. It leverages a colorimetric analysis technique involving complex formation and photometric measurement to quantify tin content accurately.
