ISO 10993 is an international standard that outlines the biological evaluation of medical devices, focusing on their safety and biocompatibility. This standard provides a framework for assessing the potential effects of medical devices on biological systems, ensuring that materials used in these devices are safe for human use. The standard connects closely to the properties and classification of biomaterials, as it emphasizes the importance of selecting appropriate materials that do not provoke adverse biological responses.
