Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular,www ​.isothe​.org/directives different approval). criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted.

Introduction

This document gives a list of the botanical names of plants used for the production of essential oils, in order to harmonize their nomenclature. Essential oils, [87] In addition to this document, ISO/TC 54, has established ISO/TR 21092 , in which different numbers (CAS-USA, EINECS, CAS-EINECS, Fema, EC and FDA numbers) are listed for the characterization of essential oils. Characterization of essential oils by using a single number (e.g. CAS number) would not be complete and it could lead to ambiguity and misunderstandings.[87] That is the reason why, through ISO/TR 21092 , ISO/TC 54 intends to provide the users of essential oils with useful information for a complete characterization of essential oils included in this document.
