This manufacturer of silicone-based materials for healthcare, aerospace, electronics and photonics has extended its biocompatibility support to include sensitization, genotoxicity and pyrogenicity testing for its line of pigmented silicone masterbatches.
This includes tests for cytotoxicity (ISO MEM elution and colony forming assay), sensitization (Kligman), intracutaneous irritation, systemic toxicity, implantation, pyrogenicity (LAL and in vivo) and genotoxicity (reverse mutation, chromosomal aberration and mouse micronucleus assay).
Furthermore, the agency discovered that written IRB records and audiotapes of the IRB meetings at which the IRB considered the protocol contained no discussion of the potential for transmissible pathogens with the questionable component, the risk of non-sterility and pyrogenicity, or the immunogenic potential of the component.
