2、ear of originaladoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice provides a series of experimental proto

3、colsfor biological assays of tissue reaction to nonabsorbablebiomaterials for surgical implants. It assesses the effects of thematerial on animal tissue in which it is implanted. Theexperimental protocol is not designed to provide a comprehen-sive assessment of the systemic toxicity, immune response

4、,carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, or mutagenicity of the materialsince other standards deal with these issues. It applies only tomaterials with projected applications in humans where thematerials will reside in bone or soft tissue in excess of 30 daysand will remain unabsorbed. It is recommended tha

5、t short-termassays, according to Practice F763, first be performed. Appli-cations in other organ systems or tissues may be inappropriateand are therefore excluded. Control materials will consist ofany one of the metal alloys in Specifications F67, F75, F90,F136, F138,orF562, high purity dense alumin

6、um oxide asdescribed in Specification F603, ultra high molecular weightpolyethylene as stated in Specification F648 or USP polyeth-ylene negative control.1.2 This practice is a combination of Practice F361 andPractice F469. The purpose, basic procedure, and method ofevaluation of each type of materi

7、al are similar; therefore, theyhave been combined.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibil

8、ity of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Practice3.1 This practice describes the preparation of implants, thenumber of implants an

16、d test hosts, test sites, exposure sched-ule, implant sterilization techniques, and methods of implantretrieval and tissue examination of each test site. Histologicalcriteria for evaluating tissue reaction are provided.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice covers a test protocol for comparing the

17、local tissue response evoked by biomaterials, from whichmedical implantable devices might ultimately be fabricated,with the local tissue response elicited by control materialscurrently accepted for the fabrication of surgical devices. Thematerials may include metals (and metal alloys), dense alumi-n

18、um oxide, and polyethylene that are standardized on the basisof acceptable long-term well-characterized long-term response.The controls consistently produce cellular reaction and woundhealing to a degree that has been found to be acceptable to thehost.5. Test Hosts and Sites5.1 Rats (acceptable stra

19、ins such as Fischer 344), NewZealand White rabbits, and other small laboratory animals maybe used as test hosts for soft tissue implant response. It issuggested that the rats be age and sex matched. Rabbits orlarger animals may be used as test hosts for bone implants.When larger animals such as dogs

20、, goats, or sheep are used, thedecision should be based upon special considerations of theparticular implant material or study.5.2 The sacro-spinalis, paralumbar, gluteal muscles, and thefemur or tibia can serve as the test site for implants. However,the same site must be used for test and material

21、implants in allthe animal species.5.3 There shall be a minimum of four animals at eachsacrifice interval for a total of twelve animals per study. Iflarger animals are used, in which a greater number of implantscan be placed, there shall be at least two animals sacrificed ateach time period.6. Implan

22、t Specimens6.1 FabricationEach implant shall be made in a cylindri-cal shape with hemispherical ends (see 6.3 and 6.4 for sizes).If the ends are not hemispherical, this shall be reported. Eachimplant shall be fabricated, finished, and its surface cleaned ina manner appropriate for its projected appl

23、ication in humansubjects in accordance with Practice F86. If the specimens areporous, the method of preparation of the porous specimensshall be representative of the contemplated human implantapplication and shall yield a specimen with characteristic poresize, pore volume, and pore interconnection d

24、iameter. Thechoice between using solid core specimens with porous coat-ings and specimens that are porous throughout shall be adecision of the investigator and shall be reported.6.2 Reference metallic specimens shall be fabricated inaccordance with 6.1 from materials such as the metal alloys inSpeci

25、fications F67, F75, F90, F138,orF562, ceramic inSpecification F603, or polymers such as in Specification F648polyethylene or USP Negative Control Plastic. If the testmaterials are porous, consideration should be given to usingporous specimens for reference specimens. Alternatively, non-porous refere

26、nce specimens may be used.6.3 Suggested Sizes and Shapes of Implants for Insertion inMuscle:6.3.1 The implants shall be cylindrical in shape and mayrange from 1 mm to 6 mm in diameter and from 10 mm to 20mm in length depending upon the relative size of the speciesunder study.6.3.2 The dimensions use

27、d shall be reported in accordancewith 8.1.6.3.3 Depending upon the particular device application,other sample shapes may be used. For instance, an investigatormight wish to test the biocompatibility of a new material forscrews in the form of a screw. If an alternative specimen shapeis used, this sho

28、uld be reported in accordance with 8.1.6.4 Sizes and Shapes of Implants for Insertion in Bone:6.4.1 Implant diameters for use in bone shall be approxi-mately equal to the cortex thickness. Implant lengths shallallow them to reside in one cortex and the medulla withoutexcessive protrusion beyond the

29、periosteum.6.4.2 The dimensions used shall be reported in accordancewith 8.1.6.5 Number of Test and Control Implants:6.5.1 In each rat, due to size, there may be two implants; oneeach test and control material implant.6.5.2 In each rabbit, due to size, there may be six implants;four test materials a

30、nd two control material implants.6.5.3 In larger animals, there may be twelve implants; eighttest materials and four control material implants.6.5.4 In rabbits or larger animals, there shall be tested atleast sixteen test material implants and eight control materialimplants at each time period.6.6 C

31、onditioning:6.6.1 Remove all surface contaminants with appropriatesolvents and rinse all test and control implants in distilled waterprior to sterilization. It is recommended that the implantmaterials be processed and cleaned in the same way the finalproduct will be.6.6.2 Clean, package, and sterili

32、ze all implants in the sameway as used for human implantation.6.6.3 After final preparation and sterilization, handle the testand control implants with great care to ensure that they are notscratched, damaged, or contaminated in any way prior toinsertion.6.6.4 Report all details of conditioning in a

33、ccordance with8.1.6.7 Implantation PeriodInsert all implants into each ani-mal at the same surgical session for implantation periods of 12,26, and 52 weeks.7. Procedure7.1 Implantation (Muscle):7.1.1 Place material implants in the paravertebral muscles insuch a manner that they are directly in conta

34、ct with muscletissue.F981 04 (2010)27.1.2 Introduce material implants in larger animals by thetechnique of making an implantation site in the muscle byusing a hemostat to separate the muscle fibers. Then insert theimplant using plastic-tipped forceps or any tool that is non-abrasive to avoid damage

35、to the implant.7.1.3 Introduce material implants using sterile technique.Sterile disposable needles or hypodermic tubing and trocharmay be used to implant the material implants into the paraver-tebral muscles along the spine. In rats, insert a negative controlimplant on one side of the spine and a t

36、est material implant onthe other side. In rabbits, implant one negative control materialon each side of the spine and implant two test materials on eachside of the spine. If larger diameter specimens are used, analternative implantation technique is that described in 7.1.2.7.2 Implantation (Femur)Ex

37、pose the lateral cortex ofeach rabbit femur and drill undersized pilot holes through thelateral cortex using the technique and instrument appropriatefor the procedure. Final reaming of the holes should beperformed by hand to yield holes which are smaller than theimplant specimens by 0.1 mm or less.

38、Into each one of theseholes, insert one of the implants by finger pressure. Then closethe wound.NOTE 1Caution should be taken to minimize the motion of theimplant in the tissue to prevent the effects of motion on the desired result.7.3 Postoperative Care:7.3.1 All animal studies must be done in a fa

39、cility approvedby a nationally recognized organization and in accordance withall appropriate regulations.7.3.2 Carefully observe each animal during the period ofassay and report any abnormal findings.7.3.3 Infection or injury of the test implant site mayinvalidate the results. The decision to replac

40、e the animal so thatthe total number of retrieved implants will be as represented inthe schedule shall be dependent upon the design of the study.7.3.4 If an animal dies prior to the expected date of sacrifice,perform a necropsy in accordance with the procedure in 7.4 todetermine the cause of death.

41、Replacement of the animal to thestudy shall be dependent upon the design of the study. Includethe animal in the assay of data if the cause of death is relatedto the procedure or test material.7.4 Sacrifice and Implant Retrieval:7.4.1 Euthanize animals by a humane method at the inter-vals specified i

42、n 6.7.NOTE 2The necropsy periods start at 12 weeks because it is assumedthat acceptable implant data has been received for earlier periods fromshort term implant testing according to Practice F763. If the 90-daysacrifice period has been utilized under Practice F763, that group need notbe repeated un

43、der this protocol, and thus, the 12-week group may beeliminated.7.4.2 At necropsy, record any gross abnormalities of coloror consistency observed in the tissue surrounding the implant.Remove each implant with an intact envelope of surroundingtissue. Include in the tissue sample a minimum of a 4-mm t

44、hicklayer of tissue surrounding the implant. If less than a 4-mmthick layer of tissue is removed, report in accordance with 8.1.7.5 Postmortem ObservationsIn accordance with stan-dard laboratory practice, perform a necropsy on all animals thatare sacrificed for the purposes of the assay or die durin

45、g theassay period. Establish the status of the health of the experi-mental animal during the period of the assay. Report asdescribed in Section 8.7.6 Histological Procedure:7.6.1 Tissue Sample PreparationPrepare appropriateblocks from each implantation site and indicate the orientationof the axis of

46、 the femur relative to the axis of the implant (forbone implants). Also indicate the orientation of the implantrelative to the axis of rotation of the femoral condyles.7.6.1.1 Process the excised tissue block containing either atest implant or control implant for histopathological examina-tion and s

47、uch other studies as are appropriate. Cut the samplemidway from end to end into appropriate size and in theappropriate orientation for each study. Transfer, or record, orboth, the orientational details noted in 7.6.1 to each part of thesample. Record the gross appearance of the implant and thetissue

48、. If the sample is porous, it is imperative that sectioningprocedures be used that maintain the implant within its tissueenvelope to allow the evaluation of tissue within the pores.Such procedures may include ground section preparation.7.6.1.2 If special stains are deemed necessary, prepareadditiona

49、l sections and make appropriate observations.7.7 Histopathological ObservationsCompare the amountof tissue reaction adjacent to the test implant to that adjacent toa similar location and orientation on the control implant withrespect to thickness of scar, presence of inflammatory or othercell types, presence of particles, and such other indications ofinteraction of tissue and material as might occur with the actualmaterial under test. A suggested method for the evaluation oftissue response after implantation is Turner, et al. (1)4.Ifaporous sample is being tested, the evalua
