Infectious Waste Testing

As the number of medical treatment cases increases, the amount of medical waste increases rapidly. The handling or disposal of medical waste may indirectly pose health risks by releasing pathogens and toxic pollutants into the environment. Therefore, its proper handling is vital for human health and environmental protection.

Medical waste that carries pathogenic microorganisms and poses a risk of spreading infectious diseases is called infectious waste. For the detection of infectious waste, identification tests and toxicological studies are mainly conducted to evaluate whether it is infectious and to carry out appropriate treatment.

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