DYCONEX LIQUID CRYSTAL POLYMER (LCP) SUBSTRATE PROVES CYTOTOXICITY CONFORMITY ACCORDING TO ISO 10993-5

Cytotoxicity, a standardized test for materials used in medical devices, is used to determine if significant quantities of harmful extractable substances are present and how these may negatively affect cellular components. Harlan Cytotest Cell Research GmbH recently performed a cytotoxicity test on an LCP product manufactured by DYCONEX and certified in an official declaration the non-cytotoxicity of the product and it's suitability for in-vitro application.

Due to its biocompatibility, hermeticity properties, chemical inertness and advantageous electromechanical properties, LCP circuit boards are especially well-suited for biomedical and temporary implantable applications.
