Scope

This standard describes a method for the collection of fungal fragments contained in a fuel sample and an estimation of their number.

Care must be taken to only count fragments of fungal origin and not any other fibres of non- microbiological origin; representative micrographs are provided in annex A to inform the operator on distinguishing between fungal fragments and other non-microbial fibres.
