Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing an extract from ginkgo biloba having a reduced content of nonpolar plant ingredients and nonpolar impurities due to environmental influences compared to the initial extract, the method being characterized by the following method steps: (a) preparing an aqueous-ketonic or aqueous-alcoholic solution of an initial ginkgo biloba extract and applying the solution to an adsorber resin, (b) eluting the adsorber resin with an aqueous C3-C6 ketone or an aqueous C1-C3 alcohol and (c) optionally concentrating and drying the extract solution thus obtained to the dry extract. The invention further relates to an extract (liquid extract or spissum extract as well as dry extract) from ginkgo biloba having a reduced content of nonpolar plant ingredients and nonpolar impurities due to environmental influences compared to the initial extract, which is obtainable by the method of the present invention.

Abstract: Prefilled syringes are made by displacing a succession of syringes along a conveyor path from a supply station successively through a marking station, a filling station, and to a downstream packing station. Each of the syringes is filled with a predetermined dose of a medicament in the filling station. The syringes are marked in the marking station with machine-readable data identifying the medicament to be put in the empty syringe at the filling station. The syringes are scanned downstream of the marking station and any syringe whose data is not readable is then removed from the conveyor path, as is any syringe whose data does not correspond to the medicament filled into the syringe at the filling station.
