Application of test paper container-blood sugar test strip

 The test paper container is a very good moisture-proof packaging container, which is mainly used for in vitro diagnostic test strips that need moisture-proof preservation. Among many test strips, blood glucose test strips are the most widely used.

Blood glucose test strips are a kind of consumables used in conjunction with blood glucose detectors, coated with biological enzymes, and can detect the amount of glucose in peripheral blood through their color changes. The blood glucose test strip area consists of two thin sheets containing sensitive chemical components. Drop the blood on the test area (the center of the yellow part), put the test strip flat for one minute and then rinse the blood. Compared with the standard colorimetric plate, the chemical reaction that occurs will produce different degrees of color changes according to the glucose content in the blood. Glucose oxidase, peroxidase, on the test strip reacts with glucose in the blood. A color indication of the reaction along with the non-reactive components will be presented in the test area.

The enzyme reagents in blood glucose test strips are particularly sensitive to water molecules. Therefore, the test strips must be stored in a dry and stable environment to avoid deterioration. There is a small medicine compartment on the lid of the test strip barrel, which contains molecular sieve and silica gel desiccant, which can absorb the moisture inside the package, maintain the stability of the internal environment, and ensure that the test strips are stored well.

Although the test paper container has good moisture resistance, the frequency of blood sugar testing is relatively high, so the package will be opened frequently, and the lid should be closed immediately after removing the test paper to prevent the intrusion of external water vapor.

How to choose a test paper tube

 Test paper tubes are mainly used in the packaging of various test strips such as test strips, and most of the bottles are labeled with the test results of the corresponding color. When many pharmaceutical companies buy test paper barrels, it is really difficult to choose from a variety of packaging manufacturers and products with different prices. So what factors should be paid attention to when purchasing test strip tubes, see what experts who know it say.

As a professional pharmaceutical packaging, test paper tube, moisture resistance and sealing are the most basic requirements. The sealing performance is generally considered from the packaging material. The stopper of the test paper tube is made of polyethylene with better flexibility, and the bottle body is made of polypropylene with better hardness. This dual material system and innovative shaping design can make the seal and the container perfectly sealed. , strictly control the water vapor transmission effect.

To achieve the moisture-proof effect of the test paper tube, a desiccant needs to be placed in the bottle. The general test paper tube desiccant is set in the bottle stopper, which is more convenient for storage and avoids the risk of accidental ingestion by children. The choice of desiccant is mainly silica gel and molecular sieve, and the national standard requires that the moisture content of the finished product is ≤2.8%.

The anti-theft ring of the test paper tube is mainly used to judge whether the drug has been used or opened before the drug is used for the first time. The stopper spring can reduce the vibration of the medicine during transportation and protect the test strip from damage. The mainstream blood sugar test paper bucket specifications are 48mm and 63mm, which can be selected according to product needs.

Diabetes is a chronic disease that cannot be cured but can be controlled. Blood glucose monitoring is one of the ways for diabetic patients to understand their blood sugar changes and better control the disease. The choice of the test strip container is related to the stability and validity of the test strip, and pharmaceutical companies must be careful when purchasing.

Three kinds of bottle caps for moisture-proof packaging

 The bottle cap is an important part of pharmaceutical packaging. Its basic function is to seal. With the continuous evolution of packaging functions and forms, the types of caps are also changing. There are three main types of bottle caps commonly used in moisture-proof packaging of medicines.

child resistant cap

medicine cap

desiccant cap

1. Common cap: refers to the common screw cover, which is also a common cover in our life. The moisture-proof packaging of medicines that choose this kind of cap is generally sealed with an aluminum foil gasket to enhance the overall sealing of the bottle.

2. Moisture-proof cover: Most of the moisture-proof medicine packaging adopts the method of built-in desiccant, and the desiccant is placed directly with the medicine in a bag. The moisture-proof cap utilizes the space at the top of the bottle cap and puts the desiccant in the small medicine compartment on the top of the cap. This not only avoids the direct contact between the medicine and the desiccant, but also prevents children from accidentally eating the desiccant.

3. Chind resistant cap: This kind of cap is mainly to prevent children from opening the package at will and eating medicines by mistake. It is composed of an inner and outer double-layer structure. If the lid needs to be pressed down and rotated at the same time, this opening method is difficult for children and can play a good anti-opening function. For adults, it can be easily opened according to the prompts.

On the whole, the caps of the moisture-proof packaging of medicines mainly include ordinary lids, moisture-proof lids, and pressure-screw lids. There are also some packages that use moisture-proof pressure-screw lids. The lids are both moisture-proof and child-proof.

What are the requirements for packaging and storage conditions for blood glucose test strips

 The blood glucose test strip is a common in vitro diagnostic reagent for diabetic patients to monitor blood glucose changes. The patient can adjust the dosage at any time according to the test results. As a common medical item, if it gets damp or the test paper barrel is unqualified, it will affect the accuracy of the blood glucose detection value. So, what are the requirements for the packaging and storage conditions of the blood glucose test strips?

48mm test strip container

The test strip vial is a packaging container specially used to store the test paper barrel. It is generally made of polypropylene material through an injection molding process. A desiccant can be placed in the bottle cap to ensure that the test strip is kept in a good state. When purchasing test strip vials, pharmaceutical companies should investigate whether the production workshop of their products is sterile, whether the production equipment is advanced, whether the finished product testing results meet the standards, and whether the supplier's qualifications are complete and other factors to ensure that the product quality is effectively guaranteed.

Test strips are easily affected by temperature, humidity, and chemical substances, so they should be stored in a dry, cool place and avoid sunlight. You can put the test paper in the drawer, keep it cool and dry, and achieve the purpose of avoiding light and moisture. After the test strip vial is opened, try to use it up within 3 months. If it takes too long, the test paper is prone to moisture or oxidation reaction, which will affect the blood glucose test results.

As one of the top ten chronic diseases in the world, diabetes is a serious threat to human health and quality of life. Daily monitoring of blood glucose through blood glucose test strips helps diabetic patients to keep abreast of changes in their condition at any time and to respond to special situations. Pharmaceutical companies should choose qualified and guaranteed manufacturers when choosing test strips to lay a solid foundation for the accuracy of blood glucose monitoring.

cap for effervescent tube

Desiccant refers to a substance that can remove moisture from moist substances. Commonly used desiccants include calcium chloride, silica gel, montmorillonite, molecular sieve, etc. Among them, the desiccant used in the effervescent tube is mainly silica gel and molecular sieve, which is also YBB00172004 -The two types of desiccants required in the standard of "Oral Solid Pharmaceutical Low Density Polyethylene Moisture-proof Combination Caps" in 2015.

Molecular sieve desiccant is a synthetic desiccant product with strong adsorption to water molecules. Under ultra-low humidity conditions, it can still absorb a large amount of water vapor in the environment and effectively control the environmental humidity. absorbs a lot of water vapour within a period of time. Silica gel is a highly active adsorption material. The most suitable hygroscopic environment is room temperature (20~32℃) and high temperature (60~90℃). It can reduce the relative humidity of the environment to about 40%, so the application range of desiccant is very widely.

When choosing the desiccant inside the effervescent tube, pharmaceutical companies generally use a mixture of silica gel and molecular sieve in equal proportions, combining the advantages of the two to play a better role in moisture absorption.

3. Quantitative feeding: sedatives have relatively high requirements on the dosage of drugs, so the paste dosing syringe will print a standard scale on the push rod, and use it with the positioning ring to administer the drug, accurately control the dosage of the drug, and avoid insufficient dosage or Occurrence of overdose.

The above are the three basic requirements of equine sedatives for paste syringes. As a new type of packaging, this packaging is also widely used in dairy cow mastitis drugs, cow endometritis drugs, pet nutrition cream and other drugs package.

Importance of Paxlovid moisture-proof packaging

 Drug moisture-proof packaging refers to the packaging with special moisture-proof function, which is mainly used for drugs that are very sensitive to water molecules. With the launch of new crown treatment drugs such as Pfizer's Paxlovid (Paxlovid) and Merck's Molnupiravir (Monupavir), the dawn of the new crown epidemic that has swept the world will appear. So, what important role will moisture-proof packaging play in pharmaceuticals?

50ml pharma desiccant bottle

At present, the new crown treatment drugs that have been marketed are mainly oral small-molecule drugs. The structure of small-molecule drugs has good spatial dispersion, and their chemical properties determine their good drug-forming properties and pharmacokinetic properties. These characteristics make small molecule drugs show great advantages in the drug development process and other drug fields, and the development of small molecule drugs is increasingly favored by the market. On the other hand, the dosage forms of these drugs are mostly tablets or capsules, which require very high moisture resistance of the packaging.

child proof bottle

Tablets and capsules are very easy to absorb water molecules, causing deliquescence, adhesion, etc., affecting the therapeutic effect of drugs, and even endangering the health and safety of patients. Therefore, when choosing packaging, moisture-proof function is an element that pharmaceutical companies focus on. Drug moisture-proof packaging is a package with a desiccant. The desiccant can absorb the water molecules inside the package and maintain the stability of the drug within the validity period. It has become the main packaging form of tablets and capsules.

Preventing drugs from getting wet is the basic function of drug moisture-proof packaging. With the continuous improvement of packaging design and production technology, this kind of packaging has gradually equipped with child-proof and anti-theft functions, providing more security for drugs.
