Sigma-Aldrich Announces CE Mark Certification
Under the European IVD Directive, certain products must meet regulatory requirements in order to qualify for sale and distribution in the European Union. The CE Marking indicates that a product complies with EU safety, environmental, and quality standards. Sigma-Aldrich has satisfactorily completed the testing and registration required to obtain CE Marking for approximately 400 of its products in the Cell Culture and Hematology & Histology product lines.
Eight product families in the Hematology & Histology line, including 250 products, have received the CE Marking, including Routine and Special Hematology stains, Routine and Special Histology stains, Histopaque Cell Separation media, Cytochemical stains, Cytology stains, and Histology stains.
The Cell Culture line received CE marking for 17 product families that include 150 products. Product families given CE Markings were Liquid Media with or without glutamine and sodium pyruvate, Concentrated Liquid Media, Salt Solutions with and without sodium bicarbonate, trypsin and penicillin solutions, Powered Media with and without glutamine, Powdered Salt Mixtures, Amniocyte Media, Bone Marrow Media, BSK-H Media, Fetal Bovine Serum, Cytogenics reagents and Supplements, L15 Leibovitz Media and Peripheral Blood Medica.
