Gas chromatography with FID detector is a technique for separating a mixture of volatile and semi-volatile molecules. Thus, it is a method that allows the analysis of different compounds of a mixture and an evaluation of health risks.
Indeed, the analysis of hydrocarbons is part of the control parameters because their presence can present a certain toxicity for the man.
Moreover, the analysis of total hydrocarbon residues (TCH) allows to adapt the cleaning process. Indeed, HCT contamination can have various sources, in particular during :
- the manufacture of the medical device
- its handling,
- packaging and storage
Thus, the support of a laboratory accredited COFRAC ISO 17025 on the analysis of HCT and specialized in the analysis of medical devices is an essential asset for the evaluation of the cleanliness of your medical devices.
