About This Item
ASTM D7819 is the ASTM standard for the Standard Test Method for Enumeration of Yeast and Mold on Fresh (Uncured) Hides and Skins. It provides a technical basis for measuring the presence of yeast and mold on these materials, helping support hygiene monitoring, incoming inspection, and quality control. For operations that handle fresh hides and skins, this standard can be an important reference for consistent microbiological testing and comparison of results across laboratories or suppliers.
ASTM D7819 standard overview
This ASTM standard focuses on a test method for enumerating yeast and mold on fresh, uncured hides and skins. As a laboratory testing document, it is relevant to microbiological evaluation of material condition and cleanliness before further processing. ASTM D7819 is commonly used where users need a repeatable way to assess fungal contamination levels and document results in a controlled testing workflow. The standard supports consistent measurement practices rather than product design requirements.
Where is ASTM D7819 used?
ASTM D7819 is typically used in testing environments that evaluate fresh hides and skins before they move into processing, storage, or downstream manufacturing steps. It is most relevant to laboratories, quality control teams, and material handlers working with uncured animal hides and skins. The standard may be used to support supplier acceptance checks, condition monitoring, or routine sanitation verification where yeast and mold counts are a concern.
Practical importance of ASTM D7819
In practice, this standard helps create a common method for measuring yeast and mold on fresh hides and skins, which can improve consistency in testing and reporting. That makes it easier to compare results, support procurement decisions, and track product condition over time. ASTM D7819 can also help reduce uncertainty in quality control programs by giving laboratories a recognized test method for microbial enumeration on these materials.
