Different directions for the biological evaluation of biomaterials.
The standard tests for the biological evaluation of biomaterials, as promoted by the International Organisation for Standardisation, have evolved over the years to become an important part of the process for ensuring, as far as is possible, the biological safety of medical devices. There is, however, some scope for improvement, especially when we consider the extremely different requirements for new medical technology products.
