This part of ISO 1135 specifies dimensions and requirements for types of transfusion bottles for medical use in order to ensure functional interchangeability of the equipment.
Secondary aims of this part of ISO 1135 are to provide
a) specifications relating to the quality and performance of materials used in transfusion equipment;
b) a unified presentation of terms and designations for such equipment.
Transfusion bottles with rubber closures should not yield, in normal conditions of use, substances having undesirable effects on the contents or producing harmful effects on the patient receiving the contents. No tests have yet been developed to assess these effects and therefore no requirements have been included.
This part of ISO 1135 specifies requirements applicable to sterilized glass transfusion bottles for single use.
