A sealing cap made of an elastic plastic material for a container closure includes a container socket base formed on a container for disposing a container socket having a bung plug disposed in a bung socket formed on the container socket base, the sealing cap comprising a lid disk which has a fastening means disposed on an underside of the lid disk and provided with a snap-lock means for forming a snap-lock connection with the bung plug, and an edge skirt disposed at the circumference of the lid disk and connected to the lid disk via a predetermined breaking means. The lid disk has a support means for supporting the lid disk on the container socket base, the support means being disposed radially inside adjacent to the predetermined breaking means on the underside of the lid disk.

An improved packaging assembly for storing, distributing, treating, mixing, and dispensing tissue and/or cellular material and/or implantable material. The packaging assembly may include pouches, tubes, and a bag made of a sealable, flexible polymeric material that is open at one end and a needle-free swabable connector attached to the pouch at the other end and acting as a port to allow for the introduction or discharge of biological solutions, rinsing solution, and/or preservation solutions into the packaging assembly. The designed thickness of the wall of the packaging assembly facilitates efficient heat/cold transfer, which is useful for successful controlled rate freezing, quick thawing, and resuscitation of viable cells or tissue. The packaging assembly is also useful for combining additional biological fluids with the cellular material or tissue, and for efficient mixing of the biological fluids with the tissue and/or cellular material in the assembly.

A closure (1) for a fluid container includes a top deck (11), a skirt (13) extending from the top deck (11) in an axial direction (−z), wherein the skirt (13) comprises a screw thread (14), slits (17) in the skirt (13), an elongated stabilizing section (15) and retaining means on the inside of the skirt (13) for engagement of a collar (36B) of the neck finish (31) of the fluid container (3). The closure includes torque engagement means (12) arranged on the outside of the top deck (11) for interacting with a torqueing member during fitting of the closure (1).

A closure system including a cap and a spout, where the cap and/or spout contain at least one discrete layer of barrier material. In one example, the spout includes a conduit and a seal member, the conduit being arranged about an imaginary axis and the seal member having one or more surfaces configured to be secured to a container. The cap includes an inner circumferential surface, the inner circumferential surface arranged to encompass the conduit. The cap also includes a first discrete layer of thermoplastic resin and a first discrete layer of barrier material and the seal member includes a second discrete layer of thermoplastic resin and a second discrete layer of barrier material.

Embodiments of a tamper-evident closure are disclosed which prevent unauthorized access to a container and its contents, deterring adulteration or introduction of counterfeit product. In one embodiment the tamper-evident closure can be fitted to an associated container and closure, and includes a portion which is removed by fracture of the tamper-evident closure to gain access to the container closure. In another embodiment, an arrangement of wedge-like tongues permit fitment of the tamper-evident closure to associated container for temper-evidence. In another embodiment, the tamper-evident closure is joined by frangible bridges to the container closure to provide the desired tamper-evidence. In another embodiment, the tamper-evident closure is movable axially of the associated container closure to thereby provide evidence of removal.
