Download Sobel’s free e-book and understand what changes in the biological evaluation of medical devices — and how to align your processes with the new international requirements.

The new ISO 10993-1:2025 edition marks a major shift in biological safety and risk management for medical devices.
It introduces significant updates — from integration with ISO 14971, to a redesigned contact categorization, increased emphasis on bioaccumulation, and a strong push for animal testing alternatives using 3Rs and NAMs (New Approach Methodologies).
With so many changes, understanding every requirement can take time. That’s why Sobel developed a practical and objective guide to help you quickly understand what truly matters — and how to prepare.
This material is essential for professionals and organizations working with:
Medical devices, in vitro diagnostics (IVDs), dental devices, and related technologies
R&D, Quality, and Regulatory Affairs teams
Manufacturers exporting to highly regulated markets
Health-tech and med-tech startups
