{7}------------------------------------------------
The retaining screw, TSV Titanium Angled Screw Channel Screw, used with the subject device abutment is packaged in the same packaging system (Nylon Bag) as the retaining screw, Certain Gold-Tite Hexed UniScrew that is used with the predicate device abutment and will maintain an identical 5-year shelf-life. Sterilization is accomplished using gamma radiation at an exposure dose of 25 to 38 kGv and was validated under a dose setter using VDmax35 method in accordance with "ISO 11137-2, Sterilization of Health Care Products -Radiation Part 2 – Establishing the sterilization dose". This validated dose results in a minimum sterility assurance of 106. Sterilization and dose audits are conducted in accordance with "ISO 11137-1, Sterilization of Health Care Products – Radiation Part 1 Requirements for Development, Validation and Routine Control of a sterilization process for medical devices". Biomet 3i conducts quarterly dose audits for devices that are sterilized using gamma radiation method. Shelf life of the nylon bags used to package the device has been verified by conducting accelerated aging and real-time aging studies of nylon bags in accordance with Biomet 3i quality procedures. Subsequent to the aging studies, shipping and distribution study was also performed per "ASTM D4169 - Standard practice for performance testing of shipping containers and systems" to determine the ability of the product structure to withstand shipping/vibration conditions in the packaging. Upon completion of the shipping and distribution test, the sterile barrier integrity was tested by dye penetration and seal strength methods and it met the acceptance criteria of these tests per "ISO 11607-1 : Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices – Part 1 : Requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems". These tests demonstrated that the product packaging was able to maintain a sterile barrier over the length of its labeled shelf life.
