HPF8

HPF8 is the most controlled perfluoro-n-octane on the market. Chemical tests of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Gas Chromatography (GC) are performed to ensure its safety. The H_value is less than 10 ppm and the perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is absent.

Biological tests of cytotoxicity by direct contact according to ISO 10993-5 are also performed on BALB 3T3 and ARPE-19 cells.

To increase safety, HPF8 was also tested for cytotoxicity in an innovative ex-vivo human retina model.

Description
Additional information

What is HPF8?

HPF8 is high purity 100% fluorinated perfluoro-n-octane, sterile and apyrogenic, to be used intraoperatively to defold and stabilize the detached retina. The product allows a clear visualization of the perfluorocarbon/aqueous, a rapid vaporization and elimination of any residual material and easy product injection and removal.

The content of endotoxins is less than 0,2 EU/ml.

HPF8 is a product tested for cytotoxicity on ARPE-19 and BALB 3T3 cells, whose results are shown on the confirmation of use labels inside the package, for a correct information to surgeon and an increased safety for the patient.
