| Life Science Material Conditioning |
|
| The conditioning of packaging materials used with medical device and pharmaceutical packaging is usually a required step in the package validation process. Environmental chambers are used to expose materials to potentially harmful temperature and humidity levels to determine the effects. Conditioning is frequently conducted before other tests such as package performance testing. |
