Cleaning the UNGUATOR® MB
The UNGUATOR® MB is normally cleaned with a paper towel and, if necessary, held under
a
hot water jet and then dried
with dispensing pulp. UNGUATOR® MBs can also be cleaned in
a conventional dishwasher.
All the UNGUATOR® devices as well as UNGUATOR® line of products must not be treated
with sharp-edged objects or abrasive cleaning agents.
3.2.2 UNGUATOR® Jar
The UNGUATOR® Jar is both the mixing and dispensing jar and is therefore designed as
an expendable or disposable jar. The UNGUATOR® Jar guarantees evaporation and
contamination-free preparation in an air-reduced mixing space. The UNGUATOR® Jar Lid
closes the UNGUATOR® Jar to ensure no loss of active ingredients.
Used as a dispensing jar, the UNGUATOR® Jar corresponds to the guidelines for quality
assurance from the German Chamber of Pharmacists (Apothekenkammer) [11]. With its small
dispensing opening, comparable to a tube and without an environmental contamination
surface, the UNGUATOR® Jar guarantees the minimization of negative quality interference
demanded by section 13, ApBetrO (Pharmacist Operating regulations); including those
caused by germs on the fingers when dispensing the ointment. Consequently, the user can
extract the ointment from the UNGUATOR® Jar very hygienically.
The UNGUATOR® Jar is resistant to hot-water baths and microwaves with temperatures
below 85 °C/185 °F. Higher temperatures may alter the tightness of the UNGUATOR® Jar
and the displaceability of the bottom (“push-up” process might be negatively impacted).
The UNGUATOR® material becomes brittle at temperatures below 0 °C/32 °F. UNGUATOR®
Jars are available in the following sizes: 15/28 ml, 20/33 ml, 30/42 ml, 50/70 ml, 100/140
ml, 200/280 ml, 300/390 ml, 500/600 ml and 1000/1250 ml (rated volume/filling volume).
The standard color for the UNGUATOR® Jar body is white with
red lid. The 300 ml, 500 ml and 1000 ml UNGUATOR® Jars come
with white lids. In addition, jar sizes 20 ml to 200 ml are also
available in pastel colors pink, light yellow, light blue and turquoise.
Furthermore, UNGUATOR® Jars from 20 to 200 ml are available
with special color lids, green, blue and white. Upon special demand
and defined quantity, UNGUATOR® Jars from 20 to 200ml may also
be ordered in customized colors.
All UNGUATOR® Jars come sealed in plastic packaging. Cleaning o
