About the event
Ethylene oxide (EO or EtO) remains the cornerstone of medical device sterilization, accounting for approximately 50% of all sterilized devices globally. Despite its unmatched efficacy for heat- and moisture-sensitive products, EO’s classification as a carcinogen and its association with neurological and reproductive risks have prompted decades of scrutiny. As scientific advancements are made, the regulatory landscape changes and we as an industry must evolve as well. As regulatory pressure intensifies, the industry faces a pivotal moment.
Join Eurofins experts to explore the evolving landscape of EO sterilization through the lens of regulatory changes, including the foundational standard guiding residual safety. With ISO 10993-7 undergoing reassessment using toxicological frameworks from ISO 10993-17, stakeholders must prepare for stricter residue limits and enhanced risk-based evaluations.
