It includes sampling plans, used to sample lots or consignments of classes of foods, and the criteria for determining whether the food poses a risk to human health. The microbiological criterion included in the standard is applicable to the corresponding food category.\nDuring the preparation of this standard, reference was made to the following documents:\nAustralian Standard 1.6.1 – Microbiological limits for food.\nInternational Commission on Microbiological Specifications for Foods — Micro-organisms in foods, Book 8.\nCommission Regulation (EC) No. 1441/2007 of 5 December 2007 amending Regulation (EC) No. 2073/2005 on microbiological criteria for foodstuffs.\nCAC/GL 21 Principles for the establishment and application of microbiological criteria for foods.\nAcknowledgement is hereby made for the assistance derived from these sources.\nFood safety — General standard\n1\tScope\nThis draft Kenya Standard specifies the basic safety requirements, sampling and test methods for foods intended for direct human consumption and/or further processing where there is no specific product standard.\n2\tNormative references\nThe following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all their content constitutes requirements of this document.
