Cambridge Polymer Group’s Michael S. Young, Ph.D. will present at the North American Chemical Residue Workshop (NACRW) on July 15, 2026, discussing the analytical approaches used to identify and quantify trace chemical residues in implantable medical devices and food-related applications.
The presentation, “Analytical Strategies to Identify and Quantify Extractable/Leachable Chemical Residues from Implantable Medical Devices: A Comparison with Food Safety Residue Analysis,” will examine how high-resolution LC-MS and GC-MS techniques are applied to the characterization of chemical residues across two industries that, while distinct, share many analytical challenges.
The session will highlight similarities and differences in study design, compound identification, quantitation strategies, and regulatory requirements, including considerations under 21 CFR Part 109 and ISO 10993-18. Attendees will gain insight into how methodologies developed in one field can inform analytical problem-solving in another, providing a broader perspective on residue analysis and chemical characterization.
