Answer 2

Air-tight sealed containers are used for Injectables. (option 3)

What are injectables?

• Injectables refer to any medicine/serum that is injected into the body through an injection to the vein.
• Injectables can be contraceptives, anti-aging procedures, weight loss medicines, etc.
• Contaminated injections can transmit serious diseases such as AIDS, Hepatitis B, etc.
• Thus, proper sterilization and safe containment of injectables is of utmost importance.

How do Air-Tight sealed containers help?

• Air-tight sealed containers do not allow any gas/liquid/solid to escape by creating a vacuum. Conversely, they do not allow anything to enter either.
• Thus, the injectables do not come in contact with air and hence remain sterilized.
• So, air-tight sealed containers are a safe option for the storage of injectables.

Thus, the correct option is  (3) Injectables.
