Chemical Waste Testing

Chemical waste is waste chemicals that are toxic, corrosive, flammable, reactive or genetically toxic and are generated during diagnosis, testing, cleaning, management, and disinfection. It includes solid, liquid, and gaseous waste, such as discarded chemical reagents, chemical disinfectants, mercury sphygmomanometers, and mercury thermometers.

Incineration of chlorine-containing materials can produce dioxins and furans, which are human carcinogens and have been linked to a range of adverse health effects. Therefore, through the detection of medical waste, we can determine the elements it contains and further develop appropriate treatment methods.

STEMart provides comprehensive chemical waste testing services to provide chemical substance testing reports that meet relevant regulations and international standards, thus determining the potential hazards of medical waste and providing compliant and cost-effective chemical waste disposal options based on your needs.

Test Samples

• Batch discarded chemical reagents such as alcohol formaldehyde and xylene.
• Batch discarded disinfectant solutions such as peracetic acid and glutaraldehyde.
• Discarded equipment and items containing heavy metal substances, such as mercury-containing sphygmomanometers, mercury-containing thermometers, mercury-containing items after dental use, and developing (fixing) fluid.

Standard Tests

• Identification Test
  • High temperature toxicity identification
  • Acute toxicity preliminary screening
  • Bacterial toxicity testing
  • Toxic substance content identification
  • Reactivity identification
• Toxicology Research
  • Single-dose toxicity studies (rodent and non-rodent)
  • Repeated dose toxicity studies (rodent and non-rodent)
  • Pharmacological testing: central nervous system research, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, hERG
  • Genotoxicity test
  • Rabbit pathogenicity test
  • Toxicokinetics
  • Local toxicity test (hemolysis, allergy, irritation test)
