About This Item
Full Description
BS EN ISO 10993-13:2010 describes two test methods to generate degradation products, an accelerated degradation test as a screening method and a real-time degradation test in a simulated environment. For materials that are intended to polymerize in situ, the set or cured polymer is used for testing. The data generated are used in the biological evaluation of the polymer. This part of ISO 10993 considers only nonresorbable polymers. Similar but appropriately modified procedures may be applicable for resorbable polymers.
BS EN ISO 10993-13:2010 considers only those degradation products generated by a chemical alteration of the finished polymeric device. It is not applicable to degradation of the device induced during its intended use by mechanical stress, wear or electromagnetic radiation or biological factors such as enzymes, other proteins and cellular activity.
NOTE An informative text discussing environmental stress cracking (ESC) of polymers is included as a potential aid to the design of degradation studies (see Annex B).
The biological activity of the debris and soluble degradation products is not addressed in this part of ISO 10993, but should be evaluated according to the principles of ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-16 and ISO 10993-17.
Because of the wide range of polymeric materials used in medical devices, no specific analytical techniques are identified or given preference. No specific requirements for acceptable levels of degradation products are provided in BS EN ISO 10993-13:2010
