Chemical Characterization vs Biological Testing: When Each is Required for Medical Devices
Medical device biocompatibility evaluation involves two distinct but complementary approaches: chemical characterization and biological testing. Understanding when each is required—and how they work together—is essential for efficient regulatory submissions and comprehensive safety evaluation. Many manufacturers struggle with determining the appropriate balance between these approaches. Over-reliance on biological testing can miss critical chemical safety concerns, while foc


Navigating Total Medical Compliance for Medical Devices
Total medical compliance within the medical device industry refers to the complete and ongoing alignment of device development, testing, manufacturing, and post-market practices with regulatory and scientific standards that protect patient health and ensure market readiness. It encompasses far more than OSHA and HIPAA requirements. This is not about general workplace safety or patient data security. This is about biological safety and device functionality at the most granular


Medical Device Material Selection: Biocompatibility Considerations for Design Engineers
