AS 2224.2:2009 pdf free.Medicine measures
The measure shall be formed from colourless, high grade, rigid plastic material free of particulate matter, and shall be inert to the mouth of the user and medicines contained therein. The material of manufacture shall meet the requirements of the relevant part of
AS 2070.
The teat or plunger seal shall be made of natural or synthetic elastomer formulated to resist degradation such as cracking, hardening, discolouration, stickiness or shedding of surface fragments (see also Clause 9.11). They shall be inert as described in Clause 4.1 and shall meet the requirements of AS 2070.
In addition to the requirements of Clause 5.1 the following design requirements shall also be met by dropper type measures:
(a) Body of dropper There shall be sufficient space above the highest graduation mark to preclude the entry of medicine into the teat when held under normal conditions of medicine administration.
(b) Teat of dropper The teat shall be designed so that it provides an airtight grip between the teat and the body of the dropper, and this shall be facilitated by the presence of an internal groove inside its mouth which fits over a flange on the body of the dropper (see Figure 1(c).
The plunger and barrel measure shall be formed from colourless, high grade, rigid plastic material free of particulate matter, and shall be inert to the mouth of the user and medicines contained therein. The material of manufacture shall meet the requirements of the relevant part of AS 2070.
The measure (except for the teat of the dropper and the plunger seal) shall be constructed so that it exhibits no distortion, cracking, chipping, loss of clarity, staining or other defect likely to interfere with its normal use. When a clean measure is filled with water, its internal surface shall resist the formation and adherence of air bubbles.
All parts of the measure shall be free from sharp edges, projections and roughness likely to cause accidental cutting, puncturing or abrasion of the skin of the user or which interfere with the reading or proper use of the measure. All edges shall be of a smooth finish.
Additional constructional requirements, as appropriate to the type of measure under consideration, are specified in Clause 7.2 and 7.3.AS 2224.2 pdf free download.
