2. Description of the Related Art Generally, freeze-dried products such as antibiotics and protein preparations are contained in vials, ampules and the like. The lyophilized product is aseptically filled with a solution for lyophilization in a vial through a sterilization filter, freeze-treated in a lyophilization apparatus, and the vial stopper is half-stoppered and dried under reduced pressure. After drying, the vial is completely stoppered to obtain a vial containing a lyophilized product. Such a vial is aseptically connected to an infusion container, a dialysis solution container, an organ preservation solution container, or the like, and a freeze-dried product is used by being co-injected into these drug solution containers. As a structure for aseptically connecting a vial and a drug solution container, there have been proposed many structures provided with a communication needle penetrating each mouth. In this method, a communication needle is aseptically held at a connection portion, and at the time of the operation, the communication needle is pierced into each mouth to communicate between the vial and the chemical solution container. And
By performing a pumping operation by pressing the wall of a flexible medical solution container, a part of the medical solution is injected into the vial and mixed, and then the mixed solution is returned to perform the mixed injection operation aseptically. . However, such a connection structure requires an operation of piercing the mouth with a communication needle, a pumping operation of a drug solution container, and the like, and has a complicated surface. Recently, a medical container is divided into two chambers, one of which is filled with a drug solution and the other of which is filled with a freeze-dried product (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 6-14975). Each chamber of the medical container is partitioned by a detachable isolation seal portion, and the isolation seal portion is peeled open by pressing the chemical solution storage chamber from the outside. Therefore, in such a drug solution container, a drug can be easily co-injected only by pressing the container. For this reason, such medical containers tend to be frequently used.

However, in recent two-chamber medical containers, there is a problem in filling the freeze-dried product. At present, two methods have been proposed as a method of filling a freeze-dried material in one of a plurality of chambers. The first method is to collectively freeze-dry a large amount of drugs in a tank, pulverize and size them, and then weigh and fill and seal a required unit amount required for a medical container. However, such a freeze-drying filling method has not completely eliminated the risk of contamination in the aseptic filling operation. During the filling process, there is a possibility that the medicine may become wet or foreign substances or bacteria may be mixed. In addition, in such a method, the freeze-dried cake is not always distributed while maintaining a uniform titer of the drug. The second is to freeze-dry the required amount of drug in the medical container in the freeze-drying container, and then transfer the required unit amount of the freeze-dried product in the freeze-drying container to the medical container as it is and fill it. It is a method of sealing. The freeze-drying container used in such a method includes a container body and a stopper, and the container body is formed in a shape having good heat conductivity with a bottom outer surface being flat. In addition, the body of the container body is formed in a cylindrical shape with a tapered surface diverging toward the opening, and the bottom inner wall is formed in a substantially hemispherical shape, so that the lyophilized material can be easily taken out at the time of transfer. I have. Further, the inner wall surface of the body is subjected to a coating treatment for easy release. However, in the aseptic filling with such a freeze-drying container, if the easily releasable coating of the freeze-drying container is functioning, the freeze-dried container can easily be turned into a massive freeze-dried product by overturning the freeze-dried container. However, since such containers are repeatedly washed for reuse, the easily releasable coating on the inner wall of the container peels off,
There is a possibility that the transfer cannot be successfully performed only by overturning the freeze-drying container. For this reason, the production yield is deteriorated. In addition, since a thermally conductive material such as aluminum or silver is used as a container for freeze-drying, metal processing is performed according to the complicated shape on the outside and inside of the container, which increases the cost.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a freeze-drying container in which a required unit amount of a lyophilized product in a medical container can be reliably transferred to a medical container as a lump and the container itself can be easily manufactured. And

[0007] The freeze-drying container comprises a cylindrical body member and a bottom member or an openable plug which can slide in the body member in a liquid-tight manner. When the bottom member can slide, the opening plug need not slide, and when the opening plug slides, the bottom member only needs to be detached from the body member. The tubular body member has a uniform tubular shape having substantially the same cross-sectional inner shape. That is, the body member is a cylindrical body, and the internal shape of the cross section may be a square shape, a circular shape, or an oval shape, but the internal shape needs to be substantially the same regardless of the cross section of any part of the body member. The opening is not circular and the lower end opening of the body member is not elliptical. Further, even if the cross-sectional shapes of the opening and the lower end opening are similar to each other, the above-mentioned shape is not satisfied if the sizes are different from the allowable range which does not lose the liquid tightness and the slidability of the sliding member. The opening plug is usually a plug that can be semi-plugged so that the opening can be hermetically sealed. Therefore, the opening plug is made of an elastic material such as a thermoplastic elastomer or rubber, and the portion into which the opening is inserted is formed in two parts.

If the body member is made of glass, the body member wall can maintain transparency. It also has a higher thermal conductivity than a transparent material made of resin. If the body member wall is transparent, the frozen or dried state of the freeze-drying solution inside can be observed and confirmed, and there is no hindrance to its production. In addition, the thermal conductivity of glass is higher than that of resin material, and there is no problem during freezing. According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the freeze-drying container according to the first or second aspect, the bottom member slides in the body member, and a central portion of the bottom member is made of a heat conductive material.

The present invention described in claim 4 is the first or second aspect of the present invention.
In the freeze-drying container described above, the opening plug slides in the body member, and the bottom member is made of a resin sheet that can be peeled from a lower end opening of the body member. The peelable resin sheet covers the lower opening in a liquid-tight manner, and is peeled from the lower opening edge when the freeze-dried product is transferred to the multi-compartment container. The resin sheet is usually peel-sealed at the lower opening edge. In the peel seal portion, resin walls are bonded to each other so as to block communication with the outside of the lower end opening. And the peel seal part is a seal part which can be peeled off and opened, and such a seal part is usually called a peel seal part or a weak seal part. The peel seal portion can be formed by strictly controlling the seal temperature, the seal time, etc., but in order to form it more reliably and safely, the inner layer should be a blend of resins having different softening points or melting points. It is desirable. This is because in a resin layer having a different melting point or the like, a fixed relationship between the heat-sealing seal strength and the temperature condition can be easily obtained, and the seal strength can be easily controlled. Therefore, when transferring the freeze-dried material from the freeze-drying container, first, peel off the resin sheet, and then push in the opening plug,
The freeze-dried material is securely pushed into the multi-chamber container from inside the body member.
