32、oduction Degradation products covered by this part of ISO 10993 are formed primarily by chemical bond scission due to hydrolytic and/or oxidative processes in an aqueous environment such as the human body. It is recognised that additional biological factors, such as enzymes, other proteins and cellu
33、lar activity, can alter the rate and nature of degradation. It should be kept in mind that a polymeric device can contain residuals and leachables such as monomers, oligomers, solvents, catalysts, additives, fillers and processing aids. These components which, if present, can interfere with the iden
34、tification and quantification of the degradation products need to be considered and accounted for. It should be recognised that residual monomers can generate the same degradation products as the polymer itself. If the reader is solely interested in using the results from a degradation test as input
35、 to further biological evaluation tests, the reader might not be interested in distinguishing between a leachable and a degradation product. If this is the case, then the care taken to separate the leachable from the degradation product may not be needed. Because of the generalized nature of this pa
36、rt of ISO 10993, product standards, when available, that address degradation product formation under more relevant conditions of use, may be considered as an alternative. This part of ISO 10993 is suitable for screening new polymeric materials and/or modified polymeric materials with unknown degrada
37、tion behaviour in body contact. This part of ISO 10993 does not reproduce degradation in vivo. The user of this part of ISO 10993 can consider running additional degradation tests addressing in vivo degradation issues. Long-term implants might not degrade within the time frame of the tests shown in
38、this part of ISO 10993. The intention of this part of ISO 10993 is to help determine the biological hazards from potential degradation products from polymer components of medical devices. As noted above, those products might come from a variety of degradation mechanisms. This part of ISO 10993 is no
39、t intended to be a complete analysis of the degradation of the medical device and the impact on its performance. The interested user is referred to the relevant product standards. The identified and quantified degradation products form the basis for biological evaluation in accordance with ISO 10993
40、-1, for risk assessment in accordance with ISO 10993-17 and, if appropriate, for toxicokinetic studies in accordance with ISO 10993-16. EN ISO 10993-13:2010 (E) DIN EN ISO 10993-13:2010-11 4 1 Scope This part of ISO 10993 provides general requirements for the design of tests in a simulated environme
41、nt for identifying and quantifying degradation products from finished polymeric medical devices ready for clinical use. This part of ISO 10993 describes two test methods to generate degradation products, an accelerated degradation test as a screening method and a real-time degradation test in a simu
42、lated 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 non-resorbable polymers. Similar but appropriately modified procedure
43、s may be applicable for resorbable polymers. This part of ISO 10993 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 electroma
44、gnetic 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 a
45、nd 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
46、 given preference. No specific requirements for acceptable levels of degradation products are provided in this part of ISO 10993. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
