Abstract: The invention is related to a multi-chamber mixing container comprising an introversion container, a withdrawal container and various optionally present intermediate containers, furthermore a device for the reception and use of the multi-chamber mixing container and methods for mixing liquids or liquids and solids under aseptic conditions in the multi-chamber mixing container.

Abstract: To provide an access route which is leaktight and at the same time permits mobility and exact positioning of an instillation catheter (6), an arrangement comprising an instillation catheter (6) and a connector piece (1) for attachment to a tracheal or endotracheal tube is proposed. The connector piece (1) has a distal end (1a) for attachment to the tube, and a proximal end (1b) for attachment to a ventilation and/or suction device and comprises a branch (5) which serves for insertion of the catheter (6) and in which a valve (2) is arranged. The valve (2) is made, at least in some areas, from an elastically deformable material and can be opened by insertion of the catheter (6). The valve further comprises a proximal through-opening (21) whose inner wall has a means allowing sealing against axial flow of fluid between catheter (6) and inner wall, and, in the distal direction from the through-opening, it has a beak section (22) which, at its beak tip (23), has a normally closed slit (24).

Abstract: The invention describes the use of surfactant comprising phospholipids and pulmonary surfactant proteins for the treatment of surgical adhesions.

Abstract: A product in a closed container, (A) the product releasing and/or containing H.sub.2 S, and (B) the container being permeable to gases, another container, largely impermeable to gases and holding an H.sub.2 S absorber, being arranged around said container. The product especially may be infusion solutions containing substances which can release or generate H.sub.2 S, in addition to other amino acids, if desired. The solutions according to the invention clearly are more durable and contain less H.sub.2 S than comparable known solutions of the art.
