Whether you are a medical device manufacturer, importer, distributor, or regulatory body, our services are designed to meet your specific needs for product safety, biological risk assessment, and regulatory compliance. 

Why Biocompatibility Testing Matters

Biocompatibility testing is a critical aspect of medical device evaluation. It determines whether materials used in a medical device are safe and non-toxic when they come contact with the human body. Since many devices interact directly with tissues, blood, or bodily fluids—either temporarily (e.g., catheters, dressings) or permanently (e.g., implants, prosthetics)—it is vital to ensure they do not cause adverse biological reactions

Potential risks include: 

  • Cytotoxicity (damage to cells) 
  • Skin or dermal irritation 
  • Allergic sensitization 
  • Inflammatory responses 
  • Systemic toxicity 

Without thorough testing, these risks can compromise patient health and lead to product recalls, regulatory non-compliance, or legal liabilities. Our biocompatibility testing services help you proactively assess and mitigate these risks.

Our Biocompatibility Testing Services 

We offer a suite of validated, regulatory-compliant biocompatibility tests tailored to the unique properties and clinical applications of your medical device. 

Our test methodologies include:

  •   Biocompatibility Testing
    Evaluates the biological safety of device materials using customized test plans aligned with ISO 10993 standards. 
  •   Cytotoxicity Testing
    In vitro test to identify material toxicity on cultured cells; essential in early-stage biocompatibility screening. 
  •   Skin Irritation Testing
    Assesses potential for skin redness or swelling from device contact—crucial for products with prolonged skin exposure. 
  •   Dermal Irritation Testing
    Examines effects of materials or leachable on the dermal layer, important for topical applications. 
  •   Sterility Testing
    Confirms devices are free from viable microorganisms—vital for single-use or implantable products.
