Detergent Residue Testing

Just because a medical device is sterile does not mean that it will definitely be clean. The aim is to determine the contaminants remaining at the end of the production and cleaning processes through cleaning verifications of various medical devices or disposable implants. Apart from oils, lubricants, polishing compounds and passivation residues on the devices, other contaminants sought are detergents.

Checking detergent residues after cleaning medical devices is an important step. "Detergent Residue Test" can be performed to determine the adequacy of sterilization processes, especially for orthopedic implants. Reusable medical devices undergo regular cleaning processes. If it is not done in the appropriate method and manner, unwanted detergent residue may remain.

With the Detergent Residue Test;
- Can be informed about the cleaning process
- Determination of the amount of residue
- Can determine the efficiency of washing processes in medical devices

It is important to work with an expert team and competent laboratories in order to test and improve the quality and system performance of medical devices. As Nanolab Laboratories Group, we provide Detergent Residue Analysis services in Medical Devices.
