Accelerated Aging and Shelf Life Testing according to ASTM F 1980 - 21 and ISO 11607 - QRA INT'L the only Lab specialising in Asia.

Every medical device is required to be labeled with an expiration date that is supported by shelf-life data. Accelerated-aging tests are employed to generate this data for design-history files, technical dossiers, and 510 (k) submissions, while concurrently running real-time studies.

For many medical devices that are manufactured from metals and robust plastics, the evaluation time for a product’s shelf life can be significantly shortened by aging the materials at elevated temperatures (often as high as 55oC). Other products, such as biologic materials or products made of thermally sensitive materials, require a more thorough aging study design with environmental chambers relevant to more unique product requirements.
