Cleaning Validation for Implantable Medical Devices: Practical Guide Using Wipes and HPLC Residue Detection
Residues on implantable devices (e.g., pacemaker housing inner walls) must be controlled to microgram levels. This article presents a validation workflow based on ISO 19227: laser‑sealed wipes with 70% IPA followed by HPLC residue detection. Data show that after three wipes, total organic carbon residue falls below 0.5 μg/cm² and bioburden pass rate reaches 100%. Includes sampling […]
