| Shelf Life | Aleo BME Liquid Bandage is provided non-sterile. Product formulation<br>inhibits microbial growth for preservation of the liquid bandage while in<br>the 15 mL glass vial and on the shelf. Shelf life studies have been<br>performed and the results indicate that the Aleo BME Liquid Bandages is<br>safe and effective for use for the labeled shelf life. |
| Performance Testing | Physical, mechanical and preservative effectiveness testing results<br>confirm that the Aleo BME Liquid Bandage meets the product design<br>specifications. Where applicable, performance testing of the Aleo BME<br>Liquid Bandage was compared to the predicate devices. |
| Substantial<br>Equivalence | Characterization and performance tests of Aleo BME Liquid Bandage<br>have confirmed that it is substantially equivalent in design, function and<br>intended use to the predicate devices and confirmed that there are no<br>significant differences between the proposed and predicate devices that<br>raise new questions of safety or efficacy. |
