Stability testing of in vitro diagnostic reagents

This standard is applicable to the stability testing of in vitro diagnostic reagents including reagent products, calibrators, control materials and kits, hereinafter called IVD reagents. It specifies general requirements for stability testing and gives specific requirements for real-time testing and accelerated testing when generating stability data in the
   - determination of IVD reagent shelf-life including transport stability;
   - determination of stability of the IVD reagent in use after the first opening of the primary container (e. g. on-board stability);
   - monitoring of stability of IVD reagents already placed on the market;
   - verification of stability after IVD reagent modifications that may affect stability.
This standard does not apply to instruments, apparatus, equipment, systems, or specimen receptacles.

Haltbarkeitsprüfung von Reagenzien für in-vitro-diagnostische Untersuchungen

Diese Norm gilt für die Haltbarkeitsprüfung von Reagenzien für in-vitro-diagnostische Untersuchungen, einschließ-lich Reagenzprodukten, Kalibriermaterialien, Kontrollmaterialien und Kits, nachstehend IVD-Reagenzien genannt. Sie legt allgemeine Anforderungen für die Haltbarkeitsprüfung fest und enthält spezielle Anforderungen an die Echtzeit- und beschleunigte Prüfung für die Gewinnung von Daten zur
¾ Bestimmung der Haltbarkeitsdauer von IVD-Reagenzien einschließlich der Transportstabilität;
¾ Bestimmung der Haltbarkeit von IVD-Reagenzien in Gebrauch nach dem ersten Öffnen des Primärbe-hältnisses (z. B. Haltbarkeit im Analysengerät);
¾ Überwachung der Haltbarkeit von bereits in den Verkehr gebrachten IVD-Reagenzien;
¾ Verifizierung der Haltbarkeit nach Änderungen an einem IVD-Reagenz, die Einfluss auf dessen Haltbarkeit haben könnten.
Diese Norm gilt nicht für Geräte, Apparate, Ausrüstung, Systeme oder Probengefäße.

Essais de stabilité des réactifs de diagnostic in vitro

La présente Norme européenne est applicable aux essais de stabilité des réactifs de diagnostic in vitro, y compris les produits réactifs, les étalons, les matériaux de contrôle et les trousses de réactifs, appelés par la suite réactifs DIV. Elle spécifie les exigences générales concernant les essais de stabilité et précise les exigences spécifiques relatives aux essais en temps réel et aux essais accélérés pour générer des données sur la stabilité en vue de :
¾ la détermination de la durée de vie des réactifs DIV, y compris la stabilité durant le transport ;
¾ la détermination de la stabilité des réactifs DIV utilisés après la première ouverture du contenant primaire (par exemple stabilité sur l'analyseur) ;
¾ la surveillance du suivi de la stabilité des réactifs DIV déjà mis sur le marché ;
¾ la vérification de la stabilité des réactifs DIV après modifications pouvant affecter cette stabilité.
La présente norme ne s'applique pas aux instruments, appareils, équipements, systèmes ou matériel de collecte des prélèvements.
