Abstract

A packaged ocular irrigating solution bag, which comprises a gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag and a gas-impermeable plastic packaging member for packaging the bag and in which an oxiglutatione-containing solution or solid preparation is enclosed in one compartment and a bicarbonate ion solution is enclosed in another compartment and the space between the bag and the packaging member has a carbon dioxide gas atmosphere.

Claims (18)

1. A method of manufacturing a packaged ocular irrigating solution bag, comprising the steps of:

(1) enclosing in compartment A a solution or solid preparation comprising oxiglutatione or a mixture of oxiglutatione and dextrose, compartment A being one compartment of a gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag comprising at least two compartments;

(2) enclosing in compartment B a bicarbonate ion-containing solution, compartment B being another compartment of the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag;

(3) packaging the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag in a gas-impermeable plastic packaging member; and

(4) in the above packaging step (3), feeding a mixed gas containing carbon dioxide gas into a space between the bag and the packaging member to thereby establish a carbon dioxide gas atmosphere in the space.

2. A method of manufacturing a package ocular irrigating solution bag, comprising the steps of:

(1) enclosing in compartment A a solution or solid preparation comprising oxiglutatione or a mixture of oxiglutatione and dextrose, compartment A being one compartment of a gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag comprising at least two compartments;

(2) enclosing in compartment B a bicarbonate ion-containing solution, compartment B being another compartment of the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag; and

(3) packaging the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag and a carbon dioxide-generating oxygen scavenger in a gas-impermeable plastic packaging member to thereby establish a carbon dioxide gas atmosphere inside the packaging member.

3. A method of manufacturing a packaged ocular irrigating solution bag, comprising the steps of:

(1) enclosing in compartment A a solution or solid preparation comprising oxiglutation or a mixture of oxiglutatione and dextrose, compartment A being one compartment of a gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag comprising at least two compartments;

(2) enclosing in compartment B a bicarbonate ion-containing solution, compartment B being another compartment of the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag;

(3) packaging the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag and a pH indicating device in a gas-impermeable plastic packaging member, the pH indicating device comprising a gas-permeable plastic packet containing a bicarbonate ion-containing solution and a pH indicator having the property of undergoing a change in color in response to a change in the pH of the solution; and

(4) in the above packaging step (3), feeding a mixed gas containing carbon dioxide gas into a space between the bag and the packaging member to thereby establish a carbon dioxide gas atmosphere in the space.

4. A method of manufacturing a packaged ocular irrigating solution bag, comprising the steps of:

(1) enclosing in compartment A a solution or solid preparation comprising oxiglutation or a mixture of oxiglutatione and dextrose, compartment A being one compartment of a gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag comprising at least two compartments;

(2) enclosing in compartment B a bicarbonate ion-containing solution, compartment B being another compartment of the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag; and

(3) packaging the gas-permeable plastic multiple compartment bag, a pH indicating device and a carbon dioxide-generating oxygen scavenger in a gas-impermeable plastic packaging member to thereby establish a carbon dioxide gas atmosphere inside the packaging member, the pH indicating device comprising a gas-permeable plastic packet containing a bicarbonate ion-containing solution and a pH indicator having the property of undergoing a change in color in response to a change in the pH of the solution.
