Biocompatibility Test Selector Skill

Purpose

The Biocompatibility Test Selector Skill recommends appropriate biocompatibility tests and protocols based on device categorization, supporting biological evaluation planning and test laboratory coordination.

Capabilities

  • Test battery recommendation by category
  • ISO 10993 part selection guidance
  • Test lab capability assessment
  • Protocol review checklist
  • In vitro vs. in vivo decision support
  • Alternative testing approaches (21st century toxicology)
  • Cost and timeline estimation
  • Sample requirement calculation
  • Control material selection
  • Test article preparation guidance
  • Results interpretation support

Usage Guidelines

When to Use

  • Selecting biocompatibility tests
  • Planning testing programs
  • Evaluating alternative methods
  • Coordinating with test laboratories

Prerequisites

  • Device categorization completed
  • Materials characterized
  • Testing gaps identified
  • Budget and timeline constraints known

Best Practices

  • Prioritize in vitro methods where validated
  • Consider 3Rs (Replace, Reduce, Refine)
  • Select appropriate positive/negative controls
  • Plan for sufficient sample quantities

Process Integration

This skill integrates with the following processes:

  • Biological Evaluation Planning (ISO 10993)
  • Biomaterial Selection and Characterization
  • 510(k) Premarket Submission Preparation
  • EU MDR Technical Documentation

Dependencies

  • ISO 10993 test standards
  • ICCVAM alternative methods
  • Test laboratory databases
  • Sample preparation guidelines
  • Control material sources
