Medical Diagnostics

ACRYLITE^® MD™ acrylic polymers offer exceptional ultra-violet light transmittance (UVT) and optical clarity while providing maximum flow characteristics and high dimensional stability. Meeting the stringent performance and regulatory compliance requirements of medical designs, ACRYLITE MD polymers are well suited for diagnostic applications, including cuvettes, test packs, rotors, and crystallography trays.

Available in two grades:
ACRYLITE^® MD™ L40 acrylic polymer
ACRYLITE^® MD™ H12 acrylic polymer

The two grades of ACRYLITE MD polymers vary according to processing conditions. These variations control the physical and rheological properties of each material. Both grades are suitable for USP Class VI use in containers and accessories, and meet requirements outlined in the FDA’s 21CFR177.1010. They have also been found to be non-hemolytic, non-cytotoxic, non-pyrogenic, non-sensitizing, and non-mutagenic when tested following the Tripartite and ISO 10993-1 protocols. Performance formulations offer:

• Exceptional ultra-violet light transmittance (UVT) to ensure consistent measurement response
• Excellent optical clarity for maximum visible inspection capabilities
• Maximum flow characteristics for high cavitation tooling and improved production efficiency
• Good dimensional stability for controlled fluid flow
• Regulatory compliance for quality control Total cost-of-use advantage over glass
