  • Publication number: 20110186083
    Abstract: A method of cleaning a pharmaceutical cell that can be carried out onsite in a pharmacy. In particular, the method can be used to clean a pharmaceutical super cell. The method includes placing the cell in a resealable container; adding a wash solution to the resealable container; sealing the resealable container; shaking the sealed container; pouring the wash solution out of the resealable container; and rinsing the cell by repeating the preceding steps using a rinse solution in place of the wash solution. The wash solution may include soap, alcohol, and/or a surfactant. The rinse solution may include deionized water and/or isopropyl alcohol, for example.

  • Patent number: 7285173
    Abstract: A process for recovering a solder contaminant from a substrate surface with a wick structure comprising a plurality of heat conductive metal strands and a desoldering flux comprising a mixture of a first component of a partially polymerized rosin having a melting point of at least 98° C., a second component which is present in the desoldering flux formulation in an amount which is no more than the amount of the first component and comprises an ester of a polyhydric alcohol and benzoic acid, and a third component, which is present in an amount which is less than the amount of the second component, and comprises an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid. The solder contaminant is contacted with the wick structure in the presence of the desoldering flux and the wick structure and the solder contaminant are heated to melt the solder contaminant to cause the melted solder to flow into the wick structure in contact with the heat conductive metal strands.
