To provide a pouch that allows a displacement of the formation position of a film through portion to be detected. A pouch includes an inner film (70) disposed in a pouch body (20), the inner film (70) including a first fixing portion (71) fixed to a pouch body (20), a second fixing portion (72) fixed to the pouch body (20), an inner placement portion (75) that is disposed in the pouch body (20) without being fixed to the pouch body (20), and a plurality of film through portions (76) penetrating in a film thickness direction, the plurality of film through portions (76) including a first film-through portion (76a) at least partially formed on the first fixing portion (71) and an inner film-through portion (76c) formed on the inner placement portion (75), the first film-through portion (76a) being overlapped on the body film in a bag-making sealing portion (23).

A packaging system for microarrays, such as microarrays of microneedles, comprising inner and outer pouches (500, 5000).

A sheet container has, formed in the bottom face of the container body, a non-attached part where the film layers are left partially unattached to each other. An filled part is formed by enclosing a filler between the film layers at the non-attached part. A side part of the filled part is a side bulging part bulging toward the skirt part. The side bulging part presses a pressed part above the lower edge of the skirt part from the inside toward the sideward. The lower edge of the skirt part is disposed inwardly from the pressed part.

One embodiment relates to a bistable hold open mechanism including first and second flexible flat, strip like members positioned relative to each other, The members include opposing first and second ends; an inner mating surface; and an opposing outer bonding surface, One or more pivot members and/or hinges is integrated into the second member separating it into a side seal portion and an operable portion, the side seal portion coupled to the operable portion. Embodiments include flexures which allow the pivot members or hinges to be biased in open or closed configurations. Appling a slight pressure to the members opens the mechanism. When the mechanism reaches a predetermined point, the pivot or hinges lock, maintaining an open configuration. Closing the mechanism only requires a slight pressure be applied to the external surface of the members, resulting in the pivot members or hinges unlocking and rotating towards a closed configuration.
