Glass vials are the most widely used primary containers for the packaging of parenteral products due to their optical clarity, general inertness, and hermetic properties, but under certain circumstances, they can pose safety concerns. Most of these issues are related to the potential formation of glass particulates through delamination or precipitation, resulting from the chemical interaction between the drug product and the inner surface of the glass vial. Hence, it is imperative for pharmaceutical companies to conduct product-vial compatibility studies to determine the appropriate packaging/container closure system.

Background: Understanding the shelf life of wine is complex and involves factors such as aroma preservation, flavour development and market acceptance. Ageing potential, crucial for flavour complexity, exposes wine to oxidation, influenced by oxygen, temperature and light, with an impact on quality. This type of oxidation is non-enzymatic, is catalyzed by metal ions and alters colour and flavour.

Background And Objectives: The dura mater is a barrier between the brain and the surrounding environment. Injuries to the dura can lead to serious complications, therefore, ensuring a hermetic closure of the dura is a primary task for a neurosurgeon. The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of applying the newly developed ViscollDURA collagen membrane (VDCM), with the commercially available Durepair (xenogeneic collagen) in animal model.

Introduction: The hermetic closure of the dura mater is a critical step in neurosurgical training, often undervalued but crucial to preventing serious complications such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks leading to meningitis and death. Inadequate closure, often due to insufficient training, can result in challenging complications, including prolonged hospitalization and reoperation.
Objective: To address the deficiencies in dural closure training, this study aims to describe a 3D prototype for simulating post-craniotomy dura mater suturing.
