More on Falcon IVF Dishes

The Falcon low-wall dish has many of the same features as the other IVF products, except the dish is non-tissue culture (TC)-treated (non-wettable), for optimal media droplet consistency. The Falcon low-wall dish is ideal for ICSI and embryo biopsy, and makes the micromanipulation procedure easier to perform. This product is packaged in individually sealed blister compartments so one dish can be accessed at a time, and the remaining dishes are kept protected. Procedures requiring long term incubation are not recommended in the Falcon low-wall dish due to the tight lid fit, which results in low gas exchange rates.

Certified and Tested

Pre-tested Falcon® IVF products were the first plasticware available certified sterile, nonpyrogenic, noncytotoxic, and nonembryotoxic. These pre-tested products save you time and expense in complying with the College of American Pathologists and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine recommended standards for IVF labs.

Performance Tested

Each lot of Falcon IVF product is subjected to a performance test for growth with a mammalian cell line. A minimum of 90% confluency within 72 hours is required for lot acceptance.

Quality Management and Control

Falcon IVF products are manufactured in compliance with the current version of the EN ISO 9001 Standard, the EN ISO 13485 Standard, the Medical Device Directive (MDD) 93/42/EEC as amended with 2007/47/EEC, and the FDA CFR 21 Part 820 and current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP).

Additional MEA Testing option available via Embryotech Laboratories - See 353655-MEA

Sterility

Falcon IVF products are irradiated and dosimetrically released per the requirements of ANSI/ AAMI/ISO 11137 and meet a minimum Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6.

Nonpyrogenic

Each lot of Falcon IVF product is tested and meets the criteria established in the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Chapter <85>, “Bacterial Endotoxins Test.” The acceptance level for a product is less than 0.1 EU/mL or 5 EU/device.

Cytotoxicity

Thorough testing is conducted to qualify material resins to USP Class VI. Products are also tested and qualify as noncytotoxic per the requirements of ISO 10993-5, Biological evaluation of medical devices – Tests for in vitro cytotoxicity.

Genotoxicity, Carcinogenicity, and Reproductive Toxicity

Products have been tested and demonstrated to be non-mutagenic and non-genotoxic per the requirements of ISO 10993-3, Biological evaluation of medical devices: Tests for genotoxicity, carcinogenicity, and reproductive toxicity.

Individual certificates, containing actual test results, are available for each lot by contacting your local Corning Life Sciences office after you receive your order.
