Define acronyms related to minimum breaking strength of rope

[buoy]

In a rope manufacturer's catalog, there are two kinds of minimum breaking strength (MBS) listed: SRT MBAS and ISO/BS EN919 MBS.
What do the acronyms SRT and ISO/BS EN919 refer to? I think the first one assumes the rope is spliced, and the second is some official criteria, but I'd like to know for sure.

sorry, should read "SRT MBS" not "SRT MBAS".

SRT - Samson Rope Technologies

SRT MBS refers to the MBS determined using an in house test method.

The 'ISO/BS-EN919' is a International Standards Organisation ref number.

Definition from the Samson catalogue I have below:

"This international standard requires the rope’s strength to be reported without the effects of the termination. For most scenarios, the rope’s strength will be 10% higher than the actual breaking strength of a spliced rope. This reporting technique gives an accurate measure of the rope’s properties, but additional computation is needed when terminations are required."
