European foreword
This document (EN 17605:2022) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 454 “Algae and
algae products”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2022, and conflicting national standards shall
be withdrawn at the latest by November 2022.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association.
Any feedback and questions on this document should be directed to the users’ national standards body.
A complete listing of these bodies can be found on the CEN website.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,
Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,
Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North
Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United
Kingdom.
Introduction
This document has been prepared by the experts of CEN/TC 454 “Algae and algae products”.
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) was requested by the European Commission (EC) to
draft European standards or European standardization deliverables to support the implementation of
Article 3 of Directive 2009/28/EC for algae and algae products.
This request, presented as Mandate M/547 , also contributes to the Communication on “Innovating for
Sustainable Growth: A Bio economy for Europe”.
The former working group CEN Technical Board Working Group 218 “Algae”, was created in 2016 to
develop a work programme as part of this Mandate. The technical committee CEN/TC 454 “Algae and
algae products” was established to carry out the work programme that will prepare a series of standards.
The interest in algae and algae products has increased significantly in Europe as a valuable source
including but not limited to carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and several pigments. These materials are
suitable for use in a wide range of applications from food and feed purposes to other sectors, such as
textile, cosmetics, biopolymers, biofuel and fertilizer/biostimulants. Standardization was identified as
having an important role in order to promote the use of algae and algae products.
The work of CEN/TC 454 should improve the reliability of the supply chain, thereby improving the
confidence of industry and consumers in algae and algae products and will promote and support
commercialisation of the European algae industry.
This document has been developed with the aim to enable laboratories to conduct a standardized
procedure for sample preparation to be used for analysing samples of algae and algae products.

1 Scope
This document specifies the sample preparation of dry and wet samples of algae and algae products. This
document enables laboratories analysing algae samples to report accurate dry weight percentages and
to obtain representative samples possible for further examination.

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in EN 17399:2020 and the following
apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— IEC Electropedia: available at

3.1
lot
quantity of material that is assumed to be of the same production process and represented by specified
sampling rules
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.1.1]
3.2
laboratory sample
sample as prepared (from the lot) for sending to the laboratory and intended for inspection or testing
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.1.2]
3.3
test sample
subsample or sample prepared from the laboratory sample and from which test portions will be taken
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.1.3]
3.4
test portion
quantity of material drawn from the test sample (or from the laboratory sample if both are the same)
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.1.4]
3.5
reserve sample
material left over from the laboratory sample when divided or subsampled test samples have been taken
and on which no further particle size reduction is done
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.1.5, modified – the note is left out]
3.6
sample
laboratory sample, a test sample, a test portion or a reserve sample as described in (3.2), (3.3), (3.4), (3.5)
3.7
dry sample
sample with a moisture content ≤15 % of the total mass
3.8
wet sample
sample with a moisture content > 15 % of the total mass
3.9
homogeneity
degree to which a property or a constituent is uniformly distributed throughout a quantity of material
Note 1 to entry: Homogeneity may be considered to having been achieved in a practical sense when the sampling
error of the processed portion is negligible compared to the total error of the measurement system. Since
homogeneity depends on the size of the units under consideration, a mixture of two materials may be
inhomogeneous at the molecular or atomic level, but sufficiently homogeneous at the particulate level. However,
uniform visual appearance does not ensure compositional homogeneity.
[SOURCE: EN ISO 6498:2012, definition 2.4.1]
3.10
homogenization
procedure to assure the homogeneity of the sample, including coarse grinding, fine grinding, mixing,
agitating, blending and pulverization
3.11
partial drying
drying
drying procedure for wet samples, in which the sample is carefully dried to allow subsequent sample
preparation procedures to be applied
Note 1 to entry: Partial drying can be performed by oven drying or freeze drying and is presented in % moisture
content reduction.
3.12
