Sterilization Validation

C.G. Laboratories is a leader in the field of medical device sterilization validation and testing.

Sterile medical devices require extensive microbiological testing to ensure the sterility of the device and comply with FDA regulations.

Trained microbiologists will be handling your device under a laminar flow hood to ensure that your device is being tested by the best personnel and in the best environment. All the microbiological testing required is performed no matter the sterilization method used (Gamma Radiation, E-Beam, Ethylene Oxide, or steam). Finally, we can provide consulting to help you comply with FDA requirements or sterilization and what sterilization method would be best suited for your device.
