Manufacturers utilizing ionizing radiation (gamma, electron beam, or X-ray) for sterilization purposes need to establish the maximum acceptable dose for the specified product. Compliance to the ISO11137 standard requires an experimental program that demonstrates that a product treated with the maximum acceptable dose meets its specified functional requirements throughout its defined lifetime.
This webinar will focus on radiation interaction with materials and the proper design of experiments to establish a product’s maximum acceptable dose. It examines why manufacturers should be cognizant of the possible impact of radiation to the product’s mechanical properties and how this may influence performance following sterilization.
