Analytics
Degradable Solutions AG is specialized in testing the
properties of implants and materials. Degradation behavior of implants
is assessed according to ISO 10993-9. Depending on the implant an accelerated
in vitro degradation test at elevated temperatures may be applied. Degradable
Solutions AG offers a complete testing protocol for assessment of materials
properties.
Following testing methods are available at Degradable Solutions AG
- Mechanical testing at 37°C
- Measuring of molecular weight by inherent viscosity (i.V.)
- Assessment of porosity and surface properties by scanning electron
microscopy (SEM)
- pH-changes of immersion medium during degradation
- Inorganic materials content determination by thermal gravimetric
analysis (TGA)
- Chemical surface properties by use of infrared spectroscopy (IR)
- Identification of impurities using electron diffraction method
(EDX) or IR
