PharmaKeep(for pharmaceuticals/medical equipment)
What is
PharmaKeep can protect against oxidative degradation and extend the shelf life of pharmaceuticals.
Oxygen and moisture in the packaging degrade pharmaceuticals. PharmaKeep can absorb oxygen and moisture. Putting it in the packaging, it can keep in low oxygen and low humidity.
PharmaKeep is the oxygen absorber exclusive for pharmaceutical and medical device.
Note: A hermetically sealed high gas barrier container is required to maintain low oxygen concentration.
Features
- Absorb both oxygen and moisture, as well as two-in-one configuration
- Type absorbing only oxygen is available
- Absorb oxygen independently of moisuture
- No moisture transfer to the applications
- Registered in DMF
