The invention concerns a flat package for a non sterile protective pouch (16) receiving a sterile surgical mesh; the package includes: an external envelope (2) including a front panel (3) and a complementary back panel (4), the inner face of the front panel (3) and the inner face of the back panel (4) being bonded respectively with a front layer (17) and with a back layer (18) of an internal envelope (15) made of a moisture-impervious material, the front panel (3) and the back panel (4) being jointed along the contours of the external envelope and, the package having an opening end comprising two tearable portions (8) configured to separate the front panel (3) upon which the front layer (17) of the internal envelope (15) is bonded from the back panel (4) upon which the back layer (18) of the internal envelope (15) is attached.

In a method of forming a coated bag for pre-treating an item stored in the bag, a bag is provided, having a sidewall extending from a closed bottom end to an open top end and defining an interior surface of a cavity. The bag is expanded from a flattened condition to an expanded condition. At least one adhesive dispenser is inserted through the open top end of the bag into the cavity. An adhesive is applied from the at least one inserted adhesive dispenser to form an adhesive coating on the interior surface of the cavity. A particulate dispenser is inserted through the open top end of the bag into the cavity. A particulate is discharged from the inserted particulate dispenser to embed the particulate in the adhesive coating. The adhesive coating is dried to retain the embedded particulate on the interior surface of the sidewall.

The invention relates to a method (100) for preserving a foodstuff in a hydrogen atmosphere in a packaging (200) comprising an interior space (220) enclosed by a hydrogen-permeable and airtightly sealable casing (210), the interior space (220) comprising a foodstuff space (221) for receiving the foodstuff and a hydrogen space (222) for receiving hydrogen gas, the foodstuff space (221) and the hydrogen space (222) being at least gas-conductively connected to one another, and the casing (210) or a sleeve (230) surrounding the hydrogen space (222) being dimensionally stable at a negative pressure in the hydrogen space (222) relative to an environment of the packaging (200) of at least 100 mbar. The method comprises at least the following steps: filling (110) the foodstuff at least into the foodstuff space (221), introducing (120) hydrogen gas at least into the hydrogen space (222), airtightly sealing (130) the casing (210) after the filling (110) and introduction (120), and generating (140) a negative pressure at least in the hydrogen space (222) relative to an environment of the packaging (200). The invention further relates to a packaging for use in a method according to the invention and to such use.

The present disclosure relates to a sterilization packaging method for a body-attachable biometric monitoring device. Provided is a sterilization packaging method for a body-attachable biometric monitoring device, the method in which a sterilization packaging process can be performed in a convenient and simple manner, further contamination which can occur during a sterilization process is prevented, damages due to moisture and the like after the packaging is complete are also prevented and thus complete sterilization packaging can be performed, in order to separately perform a sterilization packaging step in two steps, primary packaging is performed for a sterilizable state and then sterilization is performed, secondary packaging is performed to maintain airtightness for a primary packaged article which has been sterilized and thus penetration by an external contaminant and the like during the sterilization and packaging processes is prevented to prevent damages to a biometric monitoring device, a separate adsorbent is positioned outside the primary packaged article and then the secondary packaging is performed and thus functional degradation of the adsorbent during the sterilization process is prevented to enable inner packaging of the adsorbent in an excellent functional state, and a moisture removal function can be performed stably to enable a complete sterilization packaging.

A tissue graft container is provided having an interior space and including a vent which allows fluid (liquid and vapor) to escape from the container during drying of the tissue graft. The vent may be one or more apertures, one or more elongated openings, or a combination thereof, through one or more components of the container. A tissue graft packaging system having a retainer including first and second members with respective first and second pluralities of channels, and configured to removeably interconnect the first and second members in a closed configuration. The first and second pluralities of channels create a continuous interior space. The retainer further includes a vent, such as apertures, slits, etc., through one or both of the first and second retainers, for allowing moisture to escape from the retainer during the drying of a tissue graft contained within the continuous interior space of the retainer.

Methods of manufacturing shelf stable pods containing food or drink to be rapidly cooled, include inserting a mixing paddle into an aluminum can through an open end of a body of the can and sterilizing the can and mixing paddle at temperatures below a stress relief temperature of the can in a first aseptic chamber. The method also includes filling the can with a sterilized food or drink in the aseptic chamber, sealing a sterilized base of the can to the open end of the body of the can with a food-safe adhesive to create a hermetic seal, removing the can from the first aseptic chamber while maintaining the hermetic seal outside the first aseptic chamber, and mechanically seaming the base to the can.

A method of manufacturing shelf-stable gelato is provided. The method may include blending cream and sugar in a proportion. The blend may be frozen into units. The units may be freeze-dried in order to remove water content.

A puzzle of chocolate-based material puzzle pieces is formed by providing a transfer sheet having a design of food-grade material on a first side of the transfer sheet and providing a puzzle piece template having passages shaped as pieces of the puzzle. The puzzle piece template is arranged on top of the first side of the transfer sheet. The passages of the puzzle piece template are filled with a chocolate-based material. After crystallization, the chocolate-based material in the passages of the puzzle piece template form the chocolate-based material puzzle pieces of the puzzle. The chocolate-based material puzzle pieces are removed from the template.
