High temperature dry heat sterilizable syringe barrel and needle cannula assembly

摘要

A hypodermic syringe barrel and needle cannula assembly is provided that is capable of being dry heat sterilized at temperatures of greater than about 250° C. and up to about 350° C. in which the assembly includes a syringe barrel, a needle cannula and a bonding material, where the bonding material is stable above about 250° C., cures to provide a transparent bond, and affixes the needle cannula into the syringe barrel to provide the assembly with a post-sterilization needle pullout strength of at least about 30 newtons.
