In a similar manner, the calibration of glassware, such as volumetric flasks, pipettes, burettes, measuring cylindres are duly carried out by specific methods recommended by Indian Standards Institution (ISI), British Standards Institution (BSI), National Physical Laboratory (NPL), United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) at specified temperatures (See Chapter 2). 

Specifications The design, construction and capacity of volumetric glassware must be in accordance with those laid down by the Indian Standards Institution (ISI). The tolerances on capacity for burettes, as specified in the relevant Indian Standards Institution, specifications are given in Table 2.1. 

The Indian Standard Institution (ISI) has laid down the tolerances on capacity of volumetric flasks (with different capacities) calibrated at 27°C as stated in Table 2.6. 

Thus, the methods described above, both of which functionally require the same tasting facilities and time as the official ASTA method, are capable of yielding reliable values which are statistically acceptable and useful for correlation work. The method developed in our laboratory with the simpler, prescribed, dilution series has been successfully used for testing pungency of pepper and ginger also, and has been adopted as an official method for pungency determination by the Indian Standards Institution (14). 

Thus, the estimation of piperine (along with the minor amounts of piperettine and piperylin) obtained by a measure of the absorption at 342 nm of the extract has been shown to be reasonably accurate (Table VII), and predictiv/e of the real pungency of pepper samples for routine quality control. The estimation of the piper-ine by 342 nm absorption has been approv/ed by the Indian Standards Institution and by the American Spice Trade Association. The latter, however, still keep, as a recommended method, a colorimetric method which has been repeatedly shown to give very variable results.

The tolerance limits (Indian Standard Institute) for industrial effluents, textile industry raw waste water characteristics are given in Table 13.8. The tolerance limits are different for different receiving bodies. Such regulations are imposed to facilitate further purification of water by sewerage authorities, which can then be discharged into river or other major water sources. Table 13.9 lists some typical... 

The processed pouches were subjected to sterility test as per (Indian Standard Institute 2168, Specification for Pomfret canned in oil. New Delhi, India). Commercial sterility is ensured so that there is no growth of microorganisms after thermal processing. Four pouches were incubated at 55°C for 4 days and another four were incubated at 37°C for 14 days before conducting the tests. The incubated pouches were aseeptieally opened and 1-2 g of the samples were taken with a sterilized forceps and inoeulated into the sterilized fluid thioglycolate broth in test tubes. In order to ereate anaerobie condition, a little sterilized liquid paraffin wax was put on the top of the broth and kept for incubation. The absence of any turbidity was observed after incubation, which indicated that the pouches were sterile.

The Environmental (Protection) Act 1986 of India increased the government s authority to establish and enforce environmental standards. The law is likely to follow western model of chemical safety and risk assessment. The Indian Law Institute recommends that The import and/or use of any chemical substaiKe that is banned in the country of its origin or the country where the substance was first manufactured for its hazardous impact on the environment... should also be banned in India [1]. 

Specialist societies of chemical interest are also to be found in most Commonwealth countries. In Australia the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (55 Collins Place, Melbourne, C.l), founded in 1917 publishes its Proceedings and Reviews of Pure and Applied Chemistry. The Chemical Institute of Canada (48 Rideau Street, Ottawa 2) was founded in 1921 as the Canadian Institute of Chemistry and adopted the present title in 1945. Its aims are to encourage general interest in chemistry and chemical engineering, to promote scientific collaboration, and to maintain the educational professional and material standards of chemists in Canada. It publishes the Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry in Canada. The Indian Chemical Society (University College of Science Buildings, 92 Upper Circular Road, Calcutta 9) publishes the Indian Journal of Applied Chemistry.
