Product catalog summary
Executive Summary
This document serves as a summary validation guide for BioClamps, detailing the conditions of use, chemical compatibility, and validation testing results. Full test methods and results are available upon request.

1. Introduction
BioClamps, produced by BioPure in Havant, UK, are used in biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturing. They feature lot numbers for traceability.

2. Conditions of Use
BioClamps are suitable for specific manufacturing, sterilisation, working, and storage conditions. They are made from USP Class VI glass-reinforced nylon and can be sterilised via gamma irradiation or autoclaving. They should be stored in a dry environment away from sunlight, with specific temperature and pressure limits.

3. Chemical Compatibility
No data is available on the chemical compatibility of BioClamps with various solvents. Testing under actual process conditions is recommended.

4. Validation Testing
  • 4a. Summary Table: BioClamps passed various biological reactivity tests (USP <87>, USP <88>, ISO 10993 series) and extractables analysis.
  • 4b. USP <87> Biological Reactivity Tests, In Vitro: No reactivity or cytotoxicity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4c. USP <88> Biological Reactivity Tests, In Vivo: No toxicity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4d. ISO 10993–5 In Vitro Cytotoxicity: No cytotoxicity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4e. ISO 10993–6 Local Effects After Implantation: No reactivity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4f. ISO 10993–10 Skin Sensitisation: No reactivity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4g. ISO 10993–11 Systemic Toxicity: No toxicity was observed, passing the requirements.
  • 4h. Extractables: Analysis indicated materials of construction, with further evaluation available for risk assessment.
  • 4i. X-ray Equivalency: BioClamps are validated for both gamma and X-ray irradiation.

5. Validation Testing Services
Custom validation studies are available, covering a wide range of industry-recognised tests, including bioburden, particulates, endotoxin, and more.

6. Conclusions
BioClamps have passed the outlined testing standards. For additional quality and compliance information, contact WMFTS representatives.

4b. USP <87> Biological reactivity tests, in vitro USP <87> determines the biological reactivity of cell cultures in response to samples. Test, positive and negative control samples were prepared at 37°C (98.6°F) for 24 hours. Biological reactivity was rated on a scale from Grade 0 (no reactivity) to Grade 4 (severe reactivity). Results: Grade 0 - No reactivity or cytotoxicity, passing USP <87> requirements. 4c. USP <88> Biological reactivity tests, in vivo USP Class VI Plastics Test assesses the toxicity of test articles systemically, intracutaneously and through implantation. Samples were immerged...

• Headspace Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (HS-GC/MS) to detect volatile compounds • Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP/MS) to identify elemental impurities Results: Extractables were indicative of materials of construction. Validation testing services can provide further information in the evaluation of extractable data for risk assessment purposes. Please see section 5. There is a foreseeable shortage of gamma irradiation capacity. BioPhorum and Bio Process Systems Alliance (BPSA) committees have steered supply chain representatives to adopt X-ray irradiation to mitigate...
