Dr. Kiang’s presentation is titled “Challenges and Solutions in Stopper Sterilization.” A rubber stopper is a critical part of sterile injectable packaging. Depending on the material composition and design, the stopper quality can be affected by the various modes of sterilization (i.e., Ethylene Oxide (EtO), steam or radiation). Both “Ready to Use" and "Ready to Sterilize" stoppers are commercially available and precautions will be discussed for the selection of sterilization and drying processes.
