The routine assay is designed to test unknown samples for bacterial endotoxins. Samples collected for LAL analysis should be run using the routine assay, after taking the other three assays into consideration. NOTE: Contact LAL manufacturer to qualify the kinetic readers (IQ/OQ/PQ) prior to use. Furthermore, laboratories should follow scheduled preventative maintenance (PM) and/or calibration to ensure the readers perform properly for regulatory sample testing. 2. Procedure Perform the assay according to the instructions that are included with the LAL test kit or LAL lysate, in accordance with USP <85>. Additional instructions may be found in reference 8 listed below. C. Medical Devices This section applies to medical devices or assemblies or fluid pathways of medical devices or assemblies (i.e. solid medical devices such as disposable syringes, cartridges, transfusion and infusion assemblies, implants, intravenous catheters, dialysis tubing; liquid medical devices such as saline, heparin and dialysate; and gel medical devices such as demineralized bone matrices and hyaluronic acid devices) that are labeled sterile and nonpyrogenic that are in contact directly or indirectly with the cardiovascular system, lymphatic system or cerebrospinal fluid. Follow USP <161> for testing requirements If only the device pathways are labeled as sterile and nonpyrogenic, the device pathways must come in contact with the extraction fluid for the entire course of the extraction per USP<161>. Liquid medical devices do not require extractions. The standard extracting, rinsing and soaking fluid for medical devices is pyrogen-free water. The analytical approach for testing medical devices is covered in USP. If the extraction fluid shows endotoxin interfering results, modification of testing may be necessary depending on the product configuration. Alternate diluents must be verified to not interfere with the endotoxin assay prior to use. NOTE: The rinse or extract volume may be adjusted for the size and configuration of the device. The device or components may be cut into smaller pieces using sterile, nonpyrogenic equipment such as forceps, scissors, wire cutters, etc. prior to the extraction. A collaborated method prepared by an ORS laboratory is available for extraction of endotoxin from devices and may be used if necessary. Analytical verification of the final version should be conducted by the responsible |
