This collection of 38 documents has been updated to include nine new/ revised standards. It features new guidance for sterilization of single-use medical devices incorporating materials of animal origins (14160), requirements for products labeled "sterile" (ST67), dry heat sterilization of health care products (20857), radiation (11137-2), and more.Whether using in-house or contract facilities, manufacturers that ship their products sterile should not be without this book.Contents:14937 Sterilization of health care products - General requirements for characterization of a sterilizing agent and the development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices14160 Sterilization of single-use medical devices incorporating materials of animal origin - Validation and routine control of sterilization by liquid chemical sterilants14161 Sterilization of health care products - Biological indicators - Guidance for the selection, use, and interpretation of results15882 Sterilization of health care products - Chemical indicators - Guidance for selection, use and interpretation of results11737-1 Sterilization of medical devices - Microbiological methods - Part 1: Determination of the population of microorganisms on products11737-2 Sterilization of medical devices - Microbiological methods - Part 2: Tests of sterility performed in the definition, validation, and maintenance of a sterilization processST72 Bacterial endotoxin-Test methodologies, routine monitoring and alternatives to batch testing17665-1 Sterilization of health care products - Moist heat - Part 1 Requirements for the development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices17665-2 Sterilization of health care products - Moist heat - Part 2: Guidance on the application of ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-120857 Sterilization of health care products-Dry heat: Requirements for the development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices11135-1 Sterilization of health care products - Ethylene oxide - Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devicesTIR11135-2 Sterilization of health care products - Ethylene oxide - Part 2: Guidance on the application of ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11135-1TIR14 Contract sterilization using ethylene oxideTIR15 Physical aspects of ethylene oxide sterilizationTIR16 Microbiological aspects of ethylene oxide sterilizationTIR28 Product adoption and process equivalence for ethylene oxide sterilization10993-7 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 7: Ethylene oxide sterilization residuals11137-1 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 1: Requirements for development, validation and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices11137-2 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 2: Establishing the sterilization dose11137-3 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation - Part 3: Guidance on dosimetric aspectsTIR33 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation sterilization - Substantiation of a selected sterilization dose - Method VDmaxTIR35 Sterilization of health care products - Radiation sterilization - Alternative sampling plans for verification dose experiments and sterilization dose auditsTIR37 Sterilization of health care products -- Radiation -- Guidance on sterilization of human tissue-based productsTIR40 Sterilization of health care products -- Radiation -- Guidance on dose setting utilizing a Modified Method 2TIR29 Guide for process control in radiation sterilizationTIR17 Compatibility of materials subject to sterilizationTIR11139 Sterilization of health care products - VocabularyST67 Sterilization of medical devices-Requirements for products labeled "STERILE"11607-1 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 1: Requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and packaging11607-2 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 2: Validation requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processesTIR22 Guidance for ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11607, Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 1 and Part 2:200613408-1 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 1: General requirements13408-2 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 2: Filtration13408-3 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 3: Lyophilization13408-4 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 4: Clean-in-place technologies13408-5 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 5: Sterilization in place13408-6 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 6: Isolator systems13408-7 Aseptic processing of health care products - Part 7: Alternative processes for medical devices and combination products
