Collaborative International Pesticides Analytical Council

The Committee expressed concern at the fact that different chemical and physicochemical test methods are recommended by WHO and FAO. The FAO specifications give references to official and collaboratively tested methods adopted by the Collaborative International Pesticide Analytical Council (CIPAC) or by AO AC International (AOAC) and published by these organizations but do not provide full texts of the methods. In WHO specifications published up to 1997, the chemical and physicochemical methods are described in full, with the specifications, or under the heading WHO test methods in the same document. In some new Interim Specifications...

Brown (1970) mentioned the blue test and commented that it can be considered a useful indicator of the biological activity of PBO, since the allied cam-pounds, believed to have synergistic properties, contribute to the colorimetric response of the commercial product- In 1971, the Collaborative International Pesticides Analytical Council (CIPACJ also adopted the colorimetric test as its official method for PBO analysis.

Recently there has been progress towards a universal acceptance of collaboratively tested methods and collaborative trial results and methods, no matter by whom these trials are organised. This has been aided by the publication of the IUPAC/ISO/AOAC Harmonisation Protocol on Collaborative Studies.14 That Protocol was developed under the auspices of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemists (IUPAC) aided by representatives from the major organisations interested in conducting collaborative studies. In particular, from the food sector, the AO AC International, the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO), the International Dairy Federation (IDF), the Collaborative International Analytical Council for Pesticides (CIPAC), the Nordic Analytical Committee (NMKL), the Codex Committee on Methods of...
