Abstract: The present invention relates to a sterilizable multilayer film for containers containing solutions, suspensions, solids or mixtures for parenteral or enteral nutrition or tube feeding, optionally in a spatially separated arrangement of the contents, having a three-layered structure with an inner layer being in contact with the content of the container, an intermediate layer and an outer layer facing the environment, said layers optionally connected by tie and/or adhesive layers, wherein the oxygen transmission rate at 23° C. through the multilayer film determined by the oxygen transmission of the intermediate layer is less than 0.7 ml/m2d, said inner layer having a thickness of from 30 to 120 ?m, said intermediate layer having a thickness of from 5 to 35 ?m and said outer layer having a thickness of from 20 to 40 ?m, and allowing desorption of water absorbed in the intermediate layer during sterilization after said sterilization at 121° C.

Abstract: The object of the invention is a flexible plastic container for the spatially separated storage and, optionally, selective sterilization of the ingredients of preparations for parenteral or enteral use. The container comprises three compartments being suited for taking up the ingredients, namely carbohydrates within compartment 3, lipids within compartment 4, and amino acids within compartment 5 as well as connections between the compartments which can be opened sterilely from the outside. The proportions by volume of the compartments are selected such that rapid mixing of all ingredients without time-consuming pressing and kneading operations by the hospital personnel is possible within compartment 5.

Abstract: The container (1) is intended for the separate storage of active compositions, especially of liquids or solutions, and for their subsequent mixing just before use.It comprises at least three compartments (3, 4, 5) separated from one another by leakproof seams (6) of the material of the envelope (2), sealable inlet passages (7, 8), sealed transfer passages (10, 11) and a sealable outlet passage (9). The envelope is made of a polymerized and homogeneous flexible material which is chemically inert to each of said compositions and to their mixtures.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the sequential treatment of immersed objects with dissolved reagents which is particularly suitable for the treatment of contact lenses. The invention further relates to a kit consisting of the above-mentioned device and a container in which unit doses of reagents are stored.

Abstract: A multilayer sheet material comprising an 11-aminoundecanoic acid polyamide film (1) bonded by at least one of its faces to a polypropylene film (2) is obtained by coextrusion of the corresponding polyamide and polypropylene. It can be used for the manufacture of impermeable flexible bags for sterile solutions.
