PACKAGING SYSTEM FOR ASEPTIC FILLING OF SMALL VOLUME VIALS

Abstract:

A packaging system for aseptically packaging, filling, and sealing medical containers includes a container tray (100) having a container cell (120) for receiving and stabilizing the medicine container. The system also includes a stopper holder (300) with a stopper cell (320) forming a closed body with a distal opening, an interior space, a proximal wall opposite the distal opening, and a proximal outer surface (330). The stopper cell (320) is configured for releasably securing the stopper and releasing the stopper into a fill opening of the medicine container when a compressive force is exerted on the proximal outer surface of the stopper cell (320).
