EMDN D07: Alcohols for the Disinfection of Medical Devices

Complete hierarchy for EMDN group D07 in category D (Disinfectants, Antiseptics, Sterilising Agents and Detergents for Medical Devices): 3 terminal codes, EMDN v2026. Terminal codes are the ones accepted in a EUDAMED device record.

Registered classes, as of 8 Sep 2026. For each code with at least 20 registrations under a legislation, the chip shows how devices registered in EUDAMED under that code are classed, counted once per primary UDI-DI and kept separate for each legislation. It is not a determination. The class of a device comes from the MDR and IVDR classification rules for its intended purpose. MDD and IVDD classes are the directive classification and can differ from the class the same device would have under MDR or IVDR.

      • 56 Class IIa (96.5%)
      • 2 Class IIb (3.4%)

      Counted once per primary UDI-DI, using the class on the registration. The class of a device comes from the MDR and IVDR classification rules for its intended purpose, so a code is evidence of how others registered, not a determination. MDD and IVDD classes are the directive classification and can differ under MDR or IVDR.

How D07 is structured

fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Alcohols for the Disinfection of Medical Devices branch runs 1 level deep. Every code below is terminal.

1 terminal code is an “- Other” entry, 33% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.

Frequently asked questions

Which D07 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
All 3 codes listed under D07 (Alcohols for the Disinfection of Medical Devices) are terminal, so any of them can be selected in a device record.
How deep is the D07 hierarchy?
The D07 branch runs 1 level below the group code.
How many D07 codes are catch-all entries?
1 terminal code under D07 is an "- Other" entry, 33% of the branch. The remaining 2 name a specific device type.

Not sure which level to stop at, or which of two plausible codes to submit? The guide to choosing an EMDN code walks the decision level by level, with a worked example and the mistakes that get a EUDAMED registration rejected.
