摘要:
A device for concentrating solute-containing solutions, e.g. macromolecular sample solutions, by filtration through a semipermeable membrane, which device enables the user to obtain various different retentate concentrations by placing the device in different positions before use. The device preferably comprises one or more concentration units, each said concentration unit comprising one or more chambers, each chamber having at least one wall impermeable to sample solution and at least one wall, in opposing spaced relation to said sample solution impermeable wall, formed of a semipermeable membrane permeable to said solvent and impermeable to the macromolecules or other solutes to be retained, said membrane having at least two regions of different area which regions are impermeable to said solvent, each of said regions providing a deadstop preventing filtration to dryness of the solvent through the membrane and providing a different final retentate concentration; and means for drawing said solvent through the membrane.

By providing raised peripheral edges, preferably walls, for the supporting member of a vacuum skin package, a superior vacuum package is achieved when a product is vacuum packaged on such a supporting number. Wrinkles and weak spots are avoided. Preferably, the raised edges are formed in-line as the package is made.

In a vacuum skin package wrinkles and weak spots are avoided by providing a tray as the support or backing member rather than a flat sheet, the angle of the walls as they diverge outwardly being 91.degree. to 160.degree.. Especially useful is such a package when provided with a lid for stacking purposes.

The invention relates to a method of forming containers useful in vacuum packaging applications which require that the packaged product be wrapped in an air-impervious enclosure.According to one aspect of the invention, the method comprises a step wherein a substrate of an air pervious, semipervious or impervious material is mold formed, and a subsequent step wherein an impervious film is applied on the molded substrate and adhered thereto to produce an impervious substrate. In another aspect, a product is placed on the impervious substrate and enclosed by an impervious film in a vacuum skin packaging process.
摘要:
The invention provides a method of vacuum packing by defining a "dummy product" 17 alongside a product article 14 on a support sheet so that any "webbing" 18 is to the side of that projection 17 which faces away from the adjacent product article 14. That projection 17 can subsequently be trimmed to leave a webbing-free pack. Cutting down webbing reduces the risk of leakage of the pack. Preferably the height of the projection 17 is adjusted in response to the height of a product article 14 so that the extent of such webbing 18 is at a minimum.
