| 1 | The standard has been revised to align with international and ISO practices. Key updates include the revision of microbial limits covering all product categories, including henna powder, and the introduction of alternate test methods for water-soluble products like spread plate and membrane filtration. A new neutralizing diluent (TAT Broth base) has been added, and sample size and colony counting ranges have been revised. | |
| 2 | Incubation conditions have been updated for both bacterial and fungal enumeration, and the autoclave sterilization cycle is now specified as 121°C for 15–20 minutes. The revision also includes a method for validating neutralizers and introduces a rapid ATP-based microbial detection method. | |
