Today as the number of diseases has increased, the ways of treating them has also developed. Today there are a number of equipments and devices that have come up that can help in diagnosing various diseases. Though these equipments do not have any kind of chemicals in it, but still they are brought in touch with the human body for diagnosis process. Hence, it is important that the- devices are safe for the patients.
We, along with our 200 skilled professionals at our two NABL accredited laboratories perform tests of these devices. Some of the testing methods that we perform in this regard are Sterility testing, Stability testing, bacterial endotoxin, presence of organic residues, toxicity studies and many others.
Along with these device test methods we also provide other deice analysis services. We have a team of experts who can meet various complex challenges in order to offer you the required services.
EO Residuals Testing
For the methods of medical device testing, a number of chemicals are used in the laboratories. It again remains a matter of concern that these chemicals do not react with the patient’s body during diagnosis of the diseases. Ethylene Oxide is often used in various places in sterilization of medical devices. In doing so a number of times it has been seen that the levels of chemicals like ethylene oxide, ethylene glycol and other may increase. This increase in chemical can be harmful when it is used on the patient’s body. So, it is very important that the levels of these chemicals especially ethylene oxide is neutral and no access residue to left. We do take proper care of this particular thing. While the device testing method of sterility test, our experts use Ethylene Oxide (EO), but within such limits that is not harmful for the patients. After the sterility tests that our experts perform for the device, they also go for biological evaluation, that proves that the device is sterilized using the chemical Ethylene Oxide but still it is safe for use on the human body.
