Plastic Containers For Intravenous Injections
ISO 15747 details the required physical, chemical and biological testing for parenterals and other infusion systems which are stored and/or dispensed from plastic containers. MET provides a full suite of particulate analysis, physical tests and chemical analyses for these products.
The service is complimented by testing to food migration and pharmacopeia monographs including:
Migration testing EN 1186-1 Materials and articles in contact with foodstuffs. Plastics. Guide to the selection of conditions and test methods for overall migration
And
Testing of extractables and leachables and based on Ph Eur Monograph 3.2.2 PLASTIC CONTAINERS AND CLOSURE FOR PHARMACEUTICAL USE.
The methods in the standards can be supplemented by very sensitive organic and elemental analysis.
