ISO 10993-5 Fatigue Impact on Cytotoxicity Laboratory Testing Service Provided by Eurolab: A Comprehensive Guide

ISO 10993-5 is a standard that specifies the requirements for testing medical devices to assess their potential cytotoxic effects. This standard is part of the ISO 10993 series, which provides guidelines for the safety assessment of medical devices. The ISO 10993 series is widely recognized and adopted by regulatory authorities around the world.

Legal and Regulatory Framework

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 10993-5 testing is governed by various international and national standards. In the European Union, for example, the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) requires medical devices to undergo conformity assessment procedures, including testing for cytotoxic effects.

International Standards

  • ISO 10993-1:2018 - Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process
  • ISO 10993-5:2009 - Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 5: Tests for in vitro cytogenicity
  • ASTM F748-17 - Standard Practice for Selecting, Testing, and Evaluating Medical and Surgical Gloves
  • National Standards

  • EN ISO 10993-5:2013 (European Standard)
  • TSE ISO 10993-5:2014 (Turkish Standard)
  • Standard Development Organizations

    The standard development process is overseen by organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and the European Committee for Standardization (CEN).

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect advances in technology, changes in regulatory requirements, and new scientific knowledge. For example, ISO 10993-5:2009 has been replaced by ISO 10993-1:2018, which includes updated guidelines for testing medical devices.

    Standard Compliance Requirements

    Compliance with ISO 10993-5 is mandatory for medical device manufacturers seeking to market their products in the European Union and other countries that adopt this standard. Manufacturers must demonstrate conformity with the requirements of this standard as part of their regulatory submissions.

    Business and Technical Reasons for Conducting ISO 10993-5 Testing

    Conducting ISO 10993-5 testing is essential for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical devices. This testing helps to identify potential cytotoxic effects, which can be mitigated through design modifications or alternative materials. The consequences of not performing this test can include product failure, injury to patients, and damage to a companys reputation.

  • ISO 10993-5 specifies the requirements for testing medical devices to assess their potential cytotoxic effects. The standard requires manufacturers to conduct a series of tests, including:

  • Cytotoxicity testing using a direct contact method
  • Cytogenetic testing using a direct contact method
  • The test conditions for ISO 10993-5 include:

  • Temperature: 37C 1C
  • Humidity: 95 5
  • Atmosphere: Air or a humidified atmosphere
  • Sample preparation: The sample is prepared in accordance with the standard
  • Testing parameters and conditions: The testing parameters and conditions are specified in the standard
  • Record Keeping and Reporting

    Eurolab maintains accurate records of test results, including:

  • Test date and time
  • Test method used
  • Results obtained
  • Any deviations from the standard
  • Quality Assurance and Quality Control Procedures
