Definitions
- the present invention relates to multiple compartment containers including sterile medical solutions, in which at least one solution contains carbohydrate compounds.
- the invention further relates to stabilising carbohydrates in a sterile medical solution. 0 BACKGROUND
- peritoneal dialyses PD
- Sterilisation of medical solutions is commonly performed through the addition of energy, either in the form of radiation or heat.
- PD peritoneal dialyses
- WO-A-9705852 discloses a multiple compartment container including sterile peritoneal dialyses solutions, which is heat-5 sterilised in an autoclave.
- Wieslander et al. reported that all major brands of commercial PD solutions were toxic in contrast to PD solutions sterilised by filtration (Wieslander et al., 1991, Kidney Int, 40:77-79). The PD0 solutions were tested after dilution with cell growth media on cultured f ⁇ broblasts. Furthermore, Wieslander et al. have reported that the glucose degradation products also affect the functional responses involved in host defence (Wieslander et al., 1995, Peritoneal Dialysis Int, 15 (suppl).
- a patient on peritoneal dialysis uses between 8 and 20 litres of dialysis5 solution every day, depending on the treatment. This results in the consumption of 3-7 tons of solution with 1.5-4% glucose (50-175 kg pure glucose) every year. (Wieslander, 1996, Nephrol Dial Transplant 11:958-959), which if the glucose undergoes decomposition also means a non-negligible amount of decomposition compounds. Furthermore, it is well known that some patients experience pain during0 inflow of the dialysis fluid. It has been speculated that the pain could be the result of glucose degradation (Henderson et al., 1985 Frontiers in peritoneal dialysis, ed.
- Glucose an osmotic agent commonly used in PD solutions is known to degrade into carbonyls such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, metylglyoxal, 3- deoxyglucosone and glyoxal.
- Sulphite compounds have commonly been used as antioxidant in parenteral emergency drugs to prevent oxidation.
- the mechanism of decomposition of carbohydrates in PD solutions has appears however to have less to do with oxidation and sulphite is not intended to be used as an antioxidant in vitro in the present invention.
- the anti-microbial or antioxidant compounds in parenteral emergency drugs are typically used in concentration which deliver 0.5 to 2 mg of sulphite per ml of undiluted drug injection (Smolinske S, 1992, Clinical toxicology 30:597-606). Such concentrations for preventing oxidation could not be used in PD solutions since they would administer too much sulphite to the patient resulting in adverse toxic effects.
- the multiple compartment container comprises at least one sulphite compound in one or more of the compartments to stabilise decomposition of carbohydrates or to scavenge decomposition products formed during sterilisation and/or storage.
- the invention further relates to a medical solution wherein the solution contains at least one carbohydrate compound and at least one sulphite compound to stabilise decomposition of the carbohydrates or to scavenge decomposition products formed from the carbohydrates during sterilisation or storage of the medical solutions.

- a final solution suited for peritoneal dialysis is obtained with the following concentration: glucose 1.5% calcium 1.0 mM bicarbonate 38 mM sodium 132 mM magnesium 0.25 mM bisulphite 0.095 mM
- a final solution suite for peritoneal dialysis is obtained with the following concentration: glucose 2.5% calcium 1.65 mM bicarbonate 38 mM sodium 132 mM magnesium 0.4 mM bisulphite 0.095 mM
- the concentration of glucose were 4 % (w/v) and the concentration of sulphite were 0. 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.5 mM in the final solution.
- the sterilised solutions were analysed in the In vitro assay of cytotoxicity mentioned under Materials & Methods. The results from the assay showed that an increase of the sodium bisulphite resulted in a decrease of the ICG value, which means that there is a decrease in the content of the toxic decomposition products after addition of a sodium bisulphite.
- the sterilised solutions were mixed with sodium bisulphite to three different concentrations of sodium bisulphite (0, 0.5, 1 mM). Three solutions containing 132 mM Na + , 1.35 mM Ca 2+ , 0.25 mM Mg 2+ , 95.2 mM
- the sterilised six solutions were analysed in the In vitro assay of cytotoxicity and determination of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde mentioned under Materials & Methods.
- the results from the In vitro assay of cytotoxicity showed that an increase of the sodium bisulphite resulted in a decrease of the ICG value, which means that there is a decrease in the content of the toxic decomposition products.
- the results from the assay " determination of acetaldehyde and formaldehyde” showed decreased levels of both acetaldehyde and formaldehyde in the solutions containing sodium bisulphite, even down to levels under detection limit.
