APPLICTION
Oxygen scavengers are vital in preserving oxygen-sensitive products across infusion bags, solid pharmaceuticals, and fresh meat by preventing oxidation.
Application
Infusion Bag Sealing
Target Products
Oxygen-sensitive intravenous solutions
(e.g., polyunsaturated fat emulsions, vitamin C, certain antibiotics, or biologics).
Implementation
Embedding oxygen-scavenging layers or membranes during infusion bag manufacturing, or filling with inert gas during sealing.
Prevents drug oxidation (e.g., vitamin C turning yellow due to oxidation) or lipid peroxidation in emulsions.
Fresh Meat Preservation
Target Products
Oxidation-prone tablets/capsules (e.g., nitroglycerin, aspirin, hormonal drugs).
Traditional herbal medicines (containing volatile oils or phenolic compounds).
Vaccines or biologics (e.g., lyophilized powder injections requiring long-term cold storage).
Implementation
Embedding oxygen scavenger sachets or films in blister packs (aluminum-PVC).
Using high-barrier materials (e.g., aluminum composite films) combined with inert gas flushing.
Infusion Bag Sealing
Retail packaging
Supermarket chilled meats (beef, pork, poultry) use scavengers with high-barrier trays to delay browning and rancidity.
Cold chain logistics
Combines low temperatures (0–4°C) and scavengers to minimize quality loss during long-distance transport.
