Abstract:
There has been increasing attention over the past few years on the potential for the medical devices to cause changes in the immune systems, and it was necessary to provide guidance on how to address the adverse effects of medical devices on the immune system. Here we introduce the principles and methods for immunotoxicology testing of medical devices.
