Revised Standard from Last Update.

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (Part 1) (Third Revision) is identical with ISO 7886-1 : 2017 ‘Sterile hypodermic syringes for single use - Part 1: Syringes for manual use’ issued by the International Organization for Standardization was adopted by Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Hospital Equipment and Surgical Disposable Products Sectional Committee and after approval of the Medical Equipment and Hospital Planning Division Council.

This standard was first published in 1982. It was revised in 1995 to incorporate method of test for carrying out sterility test and to harmonize with ISO 7886-1 : 1993 to the extent possible. Its second revision was taken up to align its requirements with ISO 7886-1 : 1993 and adopt it as a dual number standard as IS 10258 : 2002/ISO 7886-1 : 1993 ‘Sterile hypodermic sringes for single use’. The third revision of this standard has been undertaken to align it with the latest edition of ISO 7886-1 : 2017.

On publication of this Indian Standard, IS 12050 : 1986 ‘Sterile hypodermic syringes with needle attached for single use’ shall be treated as withdrawn.
