Northwire completes extra certification testing for its BioCompatic cables

To meet the growing demands of its medical customers, Northwire has completed additional testing to certify its BioCompatic material line in accordance with ISO 10993-10 irritation and skin sensitization requirements.

To offer customers optimized, safe and dependable medical cables, BioCompatic meets some of the most stringent standards including optimal biocompatibility under USP Class VI and compliance to ISO 10993-5 cytotoxicity. Most recently, to further ensure its biocompatibility in the most critical medical applications, Northwire completed laboratory testing to validate the additional compliance to ISO 10993-10 irritation and skin sensitization requirements. Free of phthalates, halogens, and latex, BioCompatic is also compatible with steam, H2O2, gamma, and ETO sterilization.

Northwire cable engineers and LEMO connecter experts will be present to provide additional information and product samples at the MD&M West Trade Show in Anaheim, Calif., at booth #1859 from February 6-8.
