Overview
This document (EN ISO 8362-5:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 76 "Transfusion, infusion and injection, and blood processing equipment for medical and pharmaceutical use" in collaboration with Technical Committee CEN/TC 205 "Non-active medical devices" (secretariat: DIN, Germany) with substantial participation of German experts. The responsible nation standardization committee is Working Committee NA 063-02-15 AA "Elastomere Pharmapackmittel und zugehörige Komponenten" ("Elastomeric pharmaceutical packagings and associated components") at DIN Standards Committee Medicine (NAMed). This part of ISO 8362 specifies the shape, dimensions, material, performance requirements and labelling for the type of closure for injection vials, as described in ISO 8362-1 and ISO 8362-4, which is used in connection with the freeze drying (or lyophilization) of drugs and biological materials. The dimensional requirements are not applicable to barrier-coated closures. Closures specified in this part of ISO 8362 are intended for single use only.
