The present invention discloses composition comprising an open matrix network carrying pharmaceutically active cannabinoid substance, pharmaceutically acceptable water soluble or water dispersible carrier materials provided as discrete units of the suspension or emulsion in form of liquid units contained in pockets of suitable mould, solid units such as frozen units, gelled units or frozen discrete units, wherein the composition is in the form chosen from sublingual tablet, buccal tablet, and rapidly disintegrating tablet.

Example methods and systems are disclosed for on-demand packaging of one or more items. According to one example, a method can include receiving an order for the item(s) and determining characteristic-information for the item(s) using a computer system. The characteristic-information includes an indication of at least a size and a shape of the item(s). The method also includes processing the characteristic-information based on design criteria to determine an arrangement of the item(s) within at least one container volume, and a configuration for a protective structure to hold the item(s) in the arrangement within the container volume(s). The method can further include, in response to the processing the characteristic-information, forming the protective structure according to the configuration, placing the item(s) into the protective structure according to the arrangement, and placing the protective structure and the item(s) in the container volume(s).

An electron beam sterilization device (1) for thin-walled containers (C) is fitted with an input (40) or output unit (60) provided with a swivelling body to bring a set of containers (C) from the outside environment into the sterilization chamber or vice versa, avoiding radioactive emissions from the sterilization chamber.

An apparatus for filling product into containers includes a working chamber through which the containers pass and the containers are acted upon by a sterile fluid to avoid contamination. An external line extends through the working chamber having a plurality of gas openings for the introduction of sterile air into the working chamber and that an internal line extends into the external line having a plurality of openings for spraying a cleaning medium. An annular chamber extends in a longitudinal direction between the internal and the external line. The cross-sectional area of the annular chamber varies in the longitudinal direction so that an even distribution of sterile air emerging from the gas openings into the working chamber is achieved.

The invention relates to a device for moving a cushioning means towards a transport container, comprising a cushioning means dispensing device for the cushioning means and a transport container supply device for supplying the transport container. According to the invention, the cushioning means dispensing device has an ejection device which ejects the cushioning means out of the cushioning means dispensing device such that the cushioning means moves towards the supplied transport container along a ballistic trajectory which has a horizontal component at least temporarily.

Polymer composition are provided comprising a thermoplastic polymer matrix, 50 to 6000 ppm of zinc pyrithione, 50 to 6000 ppm of silver, 100 to 6000 ppm of a zeolite, and optionally 0 to 5% by weight of one or more polymer additives. The invention also relates to a masterbatch and a method for preparing such polymer composition. The present invention further relates to a food packaging comprising or consisting of such polymer composition and to the use thereof for increasing shelf-life of foodstuff such as baked goods.

Provided is a packaging system for an oxygen-sensitive compound (a drug, such as DHE, or an excipient such as exametazime), the system including a container, a self-activated oxygen scavenger (including an iron-based or non-iron based) and an oxygen-impermeable enclosure (e.g., an aluminum pouch). Also provided is a method of producing an oxygen-sensitive compound.
