SCHOTT Type I plus® Pharmaceutical glass vials for sensitive drug formulations

The ideal drug container for sensitive drug formulations

For highly sensitive drugs, leachables from the primary packaging can compromise the stability of the drug product, while adsorption of proteins to the glass surface can result in conformational changes, denaturation, aggregation, and loss of effectiveness.

SCHOTT Type I plus® vials have an ion barrier coating that reduces adsorption and ensures low leachable levels for pharmaceutical products in the neutral and acidic pH range. This reduced drug-container interaction is made possible because of a silicon dioxide coating on the inside surface.

Applications

Ideal for storing complex proteins, radiopharmaceuticals, and diluents

SCHOTT Type I plus® vials are suited for a wide range of applications. Due to their low leachable levels, the vials are ideal for storing complex proteins, radiopharmaceuticals, and diluents.

A reduced level of leached aluminum also allow for the storage of drugs that contain amino acids, such as parenteral nutrition.

Advantages

Superior drug stability and integrity

SCHOTT Type I plus® vials' silicon dioxide inner coating acts as an ion barrier. This provides stability for sensitive drugs in the acidic and neutral pH range, while the avoidance of pH-shift ensures drug integrity.

Protein adsorption can also be reduced thanks to this specialized inner surface.

Ready-to-use SCHOTT Type I plus® vials

Small batches of personalized medications and high-value pharmaceuticals often present challenges for fill-and-finish operations. Not only do they require higher quality containers, but they also require more flexibility, with frequent switching between different medications to avoid costly waste.

SCHOTT Type I plus® vials are available in a pre-washed and pre-sterilized ready-to-use (RTU) configuration, and can be processed on a variety of new and existing fill-and-finish lines, keeping vials nested throughout the process (including freeze-drying).
