Foreword
This document (CEN/TS 16201:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 400 “Project
Committee - Horizontal standards in the field of sludge, biowaste and soil”, the secretariat of which is held by
DIN.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association.
This Technical Specification is part of a modular horizontal approach in which this document belongs to the
analytical step.
The preparation of this document by CEN is based on a mandate by the European Commission (Mandate
M/330), which assigned the development of standards on sampling and analytical methods for hygienic and
biological parameters as well as inorganic and organic determinants, aiming to make these standards
applicable to sludge, treated biowaste and soil as far as this is technically feasible.
According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following
countries are bound to announce this Technical Specification: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany,
Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland,

results).
The method in general is also applicable to soils and sludges.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
plant propagule
part of a plant capable of tillering
3.2
weed
any unwanted plant that germinates or emerges
4 Principle
Samples are gently pretreated (by sieving, mixing, sub-dividing), the pH and the electrical conductivity are
measured, and the development of plants, whether from seeds, or plant propagules, is determined after a
21-day incubation period under controlled conditions.
5 Reagents and test materials
5.1 Water, quality 3 according to EN ISO 3696:1995 (tap water).
5.2 Sphagnum peat, with a degree of humification of H3 to H5, according to von Post scale,
