Biocompatibility Testing

Biocompatibility testing assesses whether a material is safe for use in biological systems, such as in medical devices or implants. This involves evaluating how the material interacts with living tissues, determining if it causes harmful reactions like inflammation or toxicity. Tests may include examining the material’s effects on cells, tissues, and overall biological functions. The goal is to ensure that the material won’t harm patients or cause negative side effects when implanted or used in medical applications, ultimately ensuring the safety and effectiveness of healthcare products.
