ISO 8362-5:2016

ISO 8362-5:2016 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.

NOTE The potency, purity, stability and safety of a medicinal product during its manufacture and storage can be strongly affected by the nature and performance of the primary packaging.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

• mandatory clauses to satisfy,
• non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
