ISO 8871-5

ISO 8871-5 je norma v rámci série ISO 8871, ktorá sa zameriava na skúšky penetračnej schopnosti elastomérových zložiek injekčných liekov a farmaceutických pomôcok.

Many elastomeric closures for pharmaceutical use are used in conjunction with injection needles. The force necessary to penetrate or pierce a rubber closure is an important parameter in evaluating the suitability of the closure for its intended use.

The force necessary to completely pierce an elastomeric closure is measured using the best penetrability tester from Cell Instruments.
