Description and technique
Description
Use according to expected results, according to type of samples and validated methods.
Technique
All the conditions and data for the validation of aseptic filling process can be consulted in the ISO Standard 13408-1 in the chapters devoted to the methods of preparation of sterile products in several Pharmacopoeias.
Each bag is intended for use with an automatic dispenser in laboratories requiring large volumes of broth media or diluent.
Discard any partially used bag to avoid contamination.
The bag has multiple connection points: 1 penetrable cap (injection port) of latex-free polycarbonate, for any additive injection required, and an injection (vial stopper) to connect to any standard laboratory dosing equipment with a connector.
Once completely empty, the bag can be disposed of along with normal plastic (PVC).
LC-6718, 2 L bags
It can be used in Media Fill in pharmaceutical industries.
