Are AI650 Bags the Ultimate Solution for Your Bioconsignment Security?

When it comes to the safe and compliant transportation of biological substances, dangerous goods, and laboratory samples, especially by air, the AI650 bag stands out as the industry-leading solution. Engineered to meet the stringent international regulations set by IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) and ICAO Packing Instruction 650, these bags are indispensable for ensuring the integrity and security of your valuable shipments.

Versatile Applications for Critical Shipments

The primary purpose of AI650 sample bags is to facilitate the secure and compliant transport of biohazardous materials and dangerous goods, with a specific focus on air cargo safety. They are meticulously designed for shipping medical, clinical, and diagnostic samples, including UN3373 Biological Substances, Category B. Their robust construction makes them suitable for a wide array of laboratory samples, whether they are in tubes, bottles, or other containers, even those potentially containing infectious agents.

Beyond biological samples, AI650 bags are also ideal for transporting dangerous liquids or solids within Packing Groups I, II, and III, particularly when utilized with 4GV packaging kits.

Specific applications include:

• Air Transport Compliance: Ensuring strict adherence to aviation safety standards for biohazardous and dangerous goods.
• Temperature-Sensitive Transport: Perfectly suited for ambient, refrigerated, frozen, and combination system transport of Category B substances.
• Enhanced UN Packaging: When inner packaging liquids do not independently meet the 95kPa pressure requirement, these bags ensure the assembled UN package qualifies for air transport.

Uncompromising Quality and Material Science

AI650 95kPa bags are crafted from low-density polyethylene (LDPE), a material widely recognized for its safety in medical preservation applications. Their custom film structure features a powerful adhesive closure and a continuous seal, guaranteeing both liquid containment and tamper evidence. The inherent strength of the polyethylene further enhances safety during handling and transit.

For comprehensive Collection and Transport Kits, particularly those utilizing 4GV packaging, additional components such as absorbent bags, fiberboard inserts, pads, ties, pressure-sensitive tape, and 4GV corrugated outer boxes are included, creating a complete and compliant shipping solution.

Key material characteristics include:

• Custom Film Structure: Guarantees a robust and continuous seal, preventing leaks.
• Medical-Grade LDPE: A safe and reliable material for preserving medical contents.
• Extreme Temperature Resilience: Capable of withstanding temperatures from -40°C to +55°C, ensuring performance in diverse environmental conditions.

Essential in Diverse Transport Scenarios

The design and capabilities of AI650 95kPa bags make them critical for several high-stakes scenarios:

• Aviation Transport: Specifically engineered to meet IATA DGR and ICAO Packing Instruction 650, these bags are integral for assembled UN packages when inner liquid containers don't individually meet the 95kPa pressure requirement, thereby ensuring air transport qualification.

• Temperature-Controlled Shipments: With a 95kPa pressure and leak test capability from -40°C to +50°C, and an adhesive closure that withstands -40°C to +55°C, they are perfect for Category B samples requiring ambient, refrigerated, frozen, or combination system transport.

• Packaging Kit Integration: Commonly used with 4GV packaging kits, allowing for the secure transport of multiple inner containers (e.g., four 8 oz or 1-liter dangerous materials containers) within a single outer box.

• Pressure Resistance: Designed to withstand a differential pressure of no less than 95kPa, providing critical safety during aircraft depressurization. They are tested to meet ISTA Procedure 1A for air transport, including hydrostatic pressure testing.

Our Commitment: Safety and Compliance

The core objective of AI650 95kPa bags is to guarantee the utmost safety in the air transport of biohazardous and dangerous goods. They are designed to meet or exceed all standards set by major airlines and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). These bags offer unparalleled leak and tamper protection through their patented adhesive closure and continuous seal.

Our bags are engineered to:

• Safeguard temperature-sensitive samples (ambient, refrigerated, frozen).
• Ensure 95kPa certified packaging for Category B biological substances through rigorous internal pressure testing.
• Act as a crucial barrier between intermediate packaging (like vermiculite) and inner containers within 4GV UN boxes, significantly enhancing overall safety.

The Future of Secure Biological Transport

Looking ahead, the AI650 specimen bag will continue to evolve. Future optimizations may include advanced materials and designs to accommodate an even wider range of temperatures and pressure conditions. Standardization and ongoing training will remain paramount to ensure global compliance and safety. We encourage all practitioners in the field to stay informed with the latest updates from authoritative sources to maintain best practices in the secure transport of biological and dangerous goods.
