Biological evaluation plan (BEP)

ISO 10993-1
A biological evaluation plan (BEP) is a critical part of assessing the safety of a medical device. It involves a detailed examination of various aspects such as the device's design & structure, its material composition, manufacturing process & potential contaminants, the intended use, existing test results, and clinical history. The BEP ensures that the device undergoes sufficient biocompatibility testing, with parameters selected from the ISO 10993-1 standard. As a manufacturer, you will need to have a BEP during the regulatory approval process to demonstrate the safety of your medical device. The BEP should be developed during the initial design phase of the medical device. At this stage, manufacturers can identify potential biological risks associated with the device's intended use, materials, and components. A new BEP or updates to the existing one may also be needed if changes are made to the device's design or material composition at a later point. At Measurlabs, we can provide a BEP for a range of medical devices while also guiding manufacturers throughout the process. Do not hesitate to contact us if you are developing a new device, seeking regulatory approval, making changes to an existing product, conducting post-market surveillance, or performing preclinical testing.  We are also happy to create an offer for biocompatibility testing according to the BEP, as well as a biological evaluation report (BER) to summarize the results of the biological evaluation.

Cleaning validation of medical devices by ISO 17664

ANSI ST98, EN 11737-2, ISO 10993-1, …
The purpose of cleaning validation studies is to show that reusable medical devices can be reprocessed effectively between uses so that patients are not exposed to pathogens. Depending on the device’s intended use and classification, appropriate reprocessing steps may include cleaning, disinfection, and/or sterilization. For cleaning validation more specifically, the testing procedure consists of three steps: Simulated contamination with artificial soils that accurately reflect clinically relevant soils, such as blood and other bodily fluids. , Cleaning (manual and/or automated), carefully following the manufacturer's instructions for parameters such as detergents, cleaning tools, water quality, and temperature. , Inspection, both visually and using quantitative methods relevant to the test soil (e.g. proteins, total organic carbon, or hemoglobin) to assess whether residual contaminants remain on the device.. Successful cleaning validation is often sufficient for non-critical reusable devices, such as blood pressure cuffs, monitors, and clutches. Semi-critical and critical devices will require further disinfection and/or sterilization validation studies that we can also offer. The displayed example price covers a manual cleaning validation study with 6 reprocessing cycles and cleanability evaluations with visual inspection & protein content measurement. Test protocol formulation and reporting are also included.

Reusability testing of food packaging according to the SUP Directive

EN 1186-1, EN 1186-2, EN 1186-3, …
This analysis package is intended to determine if food packaging and beverage bottles can be considered reusable in the framework of the Single-Use Plastic (SUP) Directive (Directive (EU) 2019/904). The following tests are included: Overall migration testing for repeated use with 10% ethanol, 3% acetic acid, and olive oil (simulants A, B, and D2), Dishwasher resistance testing according to EN 12875-1 with 25 wash cycles. The EU Commission’s interpretations of the SUP legislation declare that reusability can evaluated using test method EN 12875-1 (Mechanical dishwashing resistance of utensils). If plastic articles can be washed 25 times in a dishwasher, they can be considered to have been designed for multiple uses without losing their effectiveness and properties. Additionally, food packaging and beverage bottles tested for single-use are not compliant for reuse according to Regulation (EU) No 10/2011. Hence, the test package includes overall migration testing for repeated use to ensure that the article remains inert when reused. By default, testing is done to establish compliance with all types of foods (i.e., moist and dry foods, acidic and non-acidic, fatty foods). Note: this test package is only applicable for articles that have already been tested for food contact as single-use articles. This does not constitute a full test package for compliance according to Regulation (EU) No 10/2011. Please consult our experts for further support.
