Description

2217Z6U g 2 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PREPARING SOLUTIONS This invention
relates to a method for preparing solutions, and more particularly to a method for preparing sterile non-pyrogenic solutions for infusion into patients.
It has previously been proposed to prepare sterile non-pyrogenic solutions for infusion into patients by placing the solution in a bag and then sterilizing its contents. Alternatively, filters have been used. Finally, distillation has been used.
We have discovered that such solutions may be desirably provided by introducing into distilled water the desired solutes through a dialyzer membrane while maintaining in the dialyzer a higher pressure on the distilled water side of the membrane than on the solute solution side.
The present invention provides in one aspect thereof, a method for preparing non-pyrogenic solution comprising the step of providing distilled water to a first compartment of a dialyzer at a first pressure and providing a solution to a second compartment of said dialyzer at a second pressure, the compartments being separated by a membrane permeable to a solute of said and said first pressure being sufficiently higher than said second pressure to maintain pressure throughout said first compartment higher than pressure throughout said second compartment.
In a second alternative aspect, the invention 0 2 provides apparatus for preparing non-pyrogenic solutions, comprising: a dialyzer having two compartments separated from each other by a membrane permeable to desired solute; and a source of distilled water adapted to provide distilled water to an inlet of one said compartment, there being an outlet from said one compartment for non-pyrogenic solution, the second compartment having.an inlet for a solution of desired solute, the apparatus being further adapted so that in operation, pressure in the first compartment is maintained higher than in the second compartment.
The invention will hereinafter be described by way of example only. with reference to the single figure of accompanying drawings, which shows a diagramatic representation of apparatus for use in conjunction with a method according to the present invention.
Tap water enters still 10 to provide distilled water to compartment 12 of dialyzer 14. Extending between compartment 12 and compartment 16 is solute-permeable membrane 18.
The salt solution introduced into chamber 16 has approximately the concentrations of salts desired to be c 1 3 provided into the distilled water emerging from the compartment 12. for example:
Solute Na K Mg Ca ci C2H302 HC03 Milliequivalents/litre-(mM) 124.87 1.97 0.74 2.95 103.99 1.97 24.56 Hydrostatic pressure at the inlet to compartment 12 is 75mm Hg (104N.m-2) greater than that at the inlet to compartment 16, to maintain a greater pressure on the compartment 12 side of diaphragm 18 therealong despite pressure drops therealong on both sides thereof.
Flow is concurrent, at 50 ml/min in water compartment 121 and 500 ml/min in solution compartment 16.
