Standard Guide for Characterization and Testing of Hyaluronan as Starting Materials Intended for Use in Biomedical and Tissue Engineered Medical Product Applications
1.1 This guide covers the evaluation of hyaluronan suitable for use in biomedical or pharmaceutical applications, or both, including, but not limited to, tissue engineered medical products (TEMPs).
1.2 This guide addresses key parameters relevant to the characterization and purity of hyaluronan.
1.3 As with any material, some characteristics of hyaluronan may be altered by processing techniques, such as cross-linking and sterilization, required for the production of a specific formulation or device. Therefore, properties of fabricated forms of this polymer should be evaluated using test methods that are appropriate to ensure safety and efficacy and are not addressed in this guide.
1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
