This document has been prepared in the United Kingdom and primarily follows British English spelling conventions. However, certain chapters reflect the author’s preference for American English in specific terms such as ‘sterilise’, ‘steriliser’, and ‘sterilisation’, which have been amended accordingly to use the ‘z’ spelling. As many of the referenced standards are influenced by American English, their original spellings have been retained.
