Gerresheimer’s Gx MultiShell vials (shown) and Clearject syringes made of COP are suitable for parenteral medications, biopharmaceuticals, and oncological drugs due to their special high-performance polymer structures.
The two products feature excellent barrier properties and glass-clear transparency. Gx MultiShell vials protect their content by way of a sandwich or multilayer structure composed of COP plus a polyamide layer as an oxygen barrier. This protects sensitive pharmaceuticals against oxidation and water vapor, and the polyamide oxygen barrier increases their shelf life.
The benefits for the pharmaceutical industry are higher efficiency and a more precise dosage during administration, according to the vendor.
