Why chemical characterization of medical device materials?
• Analytical chemistry studies help to evaluate hazards that are associated with the device or manufacturing process
• Support process control in manufacturing
• Demonstrate equivalency of proposed materials to a clinically established material

Approach to characterization
• Review regulatory guidances for device type
• Design chemical characterization study
• Identify instrumentation and analysis
• Perform chemical classification and possible identification
• Provide risk assessment with chemical and biocompatibility data
• Support regulatory filing

Chemical characterization
• Considerations for the analytical approach• Intended use of device• Contact time (blood, mucosal, skin contact)• Material composition• Surface area calculations
• Extractables• Design study and choose solvents, temperature, and
duration
• Leachables• Consider drug formulation (buffer, salts, etc)• Storage and handling of drug and delivery device or
container

Instrumentation and analysis
• Gas Chromatography (GC) for volatile organics
• GC with Mass Spectrometry (MS) detection for analyte identification
• High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
• HPLC with MS detection for non-volatile /semi-volatile analyte identification
• Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) for elemental analysis -heavy metals and other process impurities

Chemical classification and identification
• Heavy Metals and other elements from the needle or tubing may leach or be extracted from the device.
• Polymers/Lubricants from the device or manufacturing process can be monitored by HPLC with laser light scattering or LC/MS.
• Solvents, plasticizers, and degradation products are often identified by GC/MS.

Compound classification and risk assessment
• Gather information about the device material, processing, cleaning, packaging, storage
• Test material for Leachables & Extractables
• A toxicologist can help assess risk. They can search chemical compound databases and calculate safe exposure levels.

Catheters for chemotherapy
• Many chemotherapy agents need to be delivered via catheters to ensure proper dosage and localized delivery
• The catheter may be a temporary angiocatheter or implanted/tunneled catheter.
• The catheter must be safe, have minimal extractables & leachables and effectively deliver the chemotherapy agent.

Leachables, Extractables, and Adsorption
• Analysis of commonly used chemotherapy agents in catheter assemblies• Do chemicals from the catheter assembly leach into
the formulated drug?° Measure semi-volatile and volatile organics by GC/MS° Measure inorganics (heavy metals) by ICP-MS
• Extract chemicals from the catheter assembly° Place catheter into solvents such as water or ethanol at
elevated temperature (50 °C) for 24-72 hours and test for chemical “fingerprints” with GC, GC/MS, LC/MS, or ICP-MS.
• Does the drug adhere to the catheter surface?° Measure drug concentration before and after incubation
with catheter using HPLC or other analytical approach.
