Abstract: A stopper for use in injector devices, where the stopper having an outer side configured for engagement with an interior bore of a barrel of the injector device. The stoppers may include an elastomer body, a multi-layer barrier coupled to the elastomer body, the multi-layer barrier having an inner surface oriented toward the elastomer body and an outer surface oriented away from the elastomer body, the multi-layer barrier including a first layer and a second layer, the first layer defining the inner surface and the second layer defining the outer surface, and the multi-layer barrier having at least one micro feature formed by the first layer, the at least one micro feature including one or both of a micro groove and/or a micro rib.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to pre-filled multi-dose injection devices and related therapeutic formulations and methods that lack a cloud point. The therapeutic formulation may be a transparent solution, and preservatives may remain within the aqueous phase without being phase separated to retain antimicrobial effectiveness.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to pre-filled injection devices and related therapeutic formulations and methods that lack fatty acid particles. The therapeutic formulation may remain fatty acid particle free or substantially fatty acid particle free over time or when subjected to accelerated aging conditions.

Abstract: A container having a barrier layer is provided. The container may be of thermoplastic and the barrier may inhibit materials from leaching from the thermoplastic material or from extraction of compounds from medicants by the thermoplastic. A process is also described that allows for molding thin barrier layers as container lines and for forming thermoplastic containers with barrier liners.

Abstract: A pre-filled syringe having containing therein at least one therapeutic is provided. The syringe contains a silicone free barrel and an elastomeric syringe stopper that is covered with an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene barrier layer. The presence of a barrier layer that is at least partially porous on the outside of the syringe stopper improves the seal between the stopper and syringe barrel and minimizes the sliding force. In some embodiments, the barrel is formed of a glass material such as a borosilicate glass, that is free of silicone or other lubricants.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to medical devices such as syringes, auto-injectors, and pens that inhibit oxygen permeation into the fluid chamber. The medical device includes a lubricant-free (e.g., silicone) or a siliconized barrel having an interior surface defining a fluid chamber, an elastomeric stopper, and a plunger rod. In one embodiment, at least a portion of the interior surface of the barrel is reduced to increase the interference fit between the stopper and the barrel. In another embodiment, the stopper may include a plurality of ribs and a valley between each pair of ribs may include a ring member provided in each of the valleys. The ring member includes an oxygen-absorbing, an oxygen-adsorbing material, or both, to bind any oxygen that permeates into the syringe, auto-injector, or pen. In yet another embodiment, the stopper may include a barrier coating including an oxygen barrier material to inhibit or prevent oxygen permeation.

Abstract: A selectively reflective construct, and a method for making the construct, are described. In one embodiment reflectance, transmission and absorption properties may be controlled in multiple electromagnetic bands. A construct is described comprising a) a thermally transparent, visually opaque substrate comprising a polymeric material and a colorant, and b) a thermally reflective layer comprising a low emissivity component which is optionally transparent to radar signal.
