Biocompatibility
According to Nancy J. Stark, there are commonly three stories in which manufacturers call on CDG for biocompatibility: a) FDA has brought up questions about the safety tests you performed, b) you can decide whether you need sensitization, genotoxicity, or carcinogenicity tests, or not, c) you have a new device and don't have a clue as to what tests to do. Can an expert opinion help?
