In the field of medical devices, ensuring biological safety with consideration of risk assessment is required, as stipulated in ISO 10993-1. It is necessary to evaluate potential risks, such as toxicity and allergic reactions, to human tissues that come into direct or indirect contact with the medical device. There are various tests, including cytotoxicity tests, irritation tests, sensitization tests, genotoxicity tests, implantation tests, and blood compatibility tests. However, the selection of necessary tests/evaluation items for regulatory compliance must be conducted with consideration of the characteristics of each medical device. ISO 10993-1 categorizes medical devices based on the areas of contact with the human body and the duration of contact, providing endpoints according to the characteristics of the medical device (Table A). However, differences exist among regulatory authorities regarding the recommended testing methods and sample extraction procedures, so it is essential to thoroughly understand these differences. Our company is capable of conducting tests that comply not only with ISO 10993 but also with a wide range of regulations and standards, including FDA guidance, guidelines from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, USP, and OECD. We also provide toxicological risk assessments in addition to testing.
