| It-tip ta’ kunsinna |
Proċedura |
| Kunsinni għall-approvazzjoni mid-dwana |
Il-kampjun aggregat jikkonsisti minn numru xieraq ta’ kampjuni inkrementali. Kampjun wieħed ġeneralment jitqies li jirrappreżenta l-oġġetti koperti mill-istess dikjarazzjoni tad-dwana. |
| Kunsinni għall-PAK (rifużjonijiet ta’ esportazzjoni) |
Il-kampjun aggregat jikkonsisti f’numru xieraq ta’ kampjuni inkrementali. L-għadd minimu ta’ kampjuni inkrementali huwa deskritt hawn taħt. Jekk il-kunsinna tkun tikkonsisti f’oġġetti li jkunu ġejjin minn linja ta’ produzzjoni waħda (in-numru tal-lott ikun identiku) jistgħu jittieħdu inqas kampjuni. |
| Cartons containing packages < 250 grams |
Take enough packages from different cartons to form two aggregated samples of 0,5 kg. Do not open packages.
|
| Cartons containing packages or cans ≤ 2 kg |
Take entire packages from one or more cartons as one sample.
|
| Cartons containing packages or cans > 2 kg |
Cut off a cube of 2 kg with a knife from one or more packages as shown and wrap it in cling-film or aluminium foil before putting it in a container.

|
| Kummenti ġenerali |
- It is always preferable to take complete packages of butter and butterfat as samples. If it is not realistic to take whole packages, use an appropriate tool to cut off whole pieces.
- Drilling cores from butter or butter fat blocks is not a sampling method recommended for customs purposes.
- The critical parameter for the analysis is the moisture content. If it is not possible to take whole unopened packages, you must take every possible precaution to prevent a change in the moisture content by either condensation or evaporation. Samples should be immediately wrapped in cling film or aluminium foil.
|
| Frozen blocks |
-
If possible take entire packages as samples. When sampling bulk products avoid small pieces (drillings or chippings) as samples. Cut off one sufficiently large piece and take measures to prevent condensation of humidity on the surface of the sample. Do not attempt to form aggregate samples. See Sampling Procedures of Frozen Products in the General Part.
|
| Butter of New Zealand origin |
- This butter has to be sampled in accordance with Commission Regulation (EC) No 2535/2001, Article 40 and Annex IV.
|
| Il-formola għat-teħid tal-kampjuni |
- Imla l-formola għat-teħid tal-kampjun. Kopja għandha tkun mehmuża mal-kampjuni u kopja oħra għandha tinżamm fir-reġistri.
|
| It-trasport |
- Protect the samples against light and air contact.
- Protect the samples from sources of contamination (odour, liquids, other substances, microbiological growth, etc.).
- Keep cooled or refrigerated during transportation. The temperature of the cooling chain should be recorded.
- Frozen products should preferably be transported in a freezer. Alternatively they can be transported in a refrigerator. Take care that the samples do not thaw during transport. The cooling chain must be maintained and should be recorded.
|
| Il-ħażna |
- Protect the samples against light and air contact.
- Protect the samples from sources of contamination (odour, liquids, other substances, microbiological growth, etc.).
- The samples must be stored at a cool temperature, preferably at 0 to 4 °C; see EN ISO 707 for details. The cooling chain must be maintained and preferably be recorded.
- Freeze samples for long-term storage.
- Frozen products must be stored in a freezer. The cooling chain must be maintained and should be recorded.
