    Hi,

    Please let me know when to do the biocompatibility tests for the active implantable medical devices, is it prior to sterilization process or after.

    Regards,

    Hi Jayaram, 

    Per ISO 10993-1:
    That essentially means, the tests have to be done after sterilizing your device. 

    Hope this helps.
