Patent CA-2615935-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MORNEAU JOSEPH GILLES
IPC: G01N1/14
Filed: 2008-01-14
Abstract: Sur un contenant qui sert à transporter, entreposer et aussi à préserver la qualité microbiologique d'un liquide, on sait que l'on utilise des bouchons qui, lorsque scellés, empêchent l'air de pénétrer et d'altérer le produit liquide qu'on y a incorporé. Lorsqu'un échantillonnage doit être effectué, on se doit d'ouvrir le bouchon , ce qui, malencontreusement, laisse l'air entrer en contact avec le liquide. Pour y mettre fin, on replace le bouchon le plus rapidement possible. Cependant, le dommage est fa it et le liquide est dès lors contaminé par l'air et débute ainsi le processus d'oxydation et autres phénomènes qu'amènent les bactéries transportées par l'air. Dans la présente invention, nous joignons spécifiquement au contenant un système d'échantillonnage qui permet d'effectuer une prise d'échantillon du liquide d'une manière qui évite la contamination du liquide par l'air ambiant. Un tel système permet de protéger le liquide de toute contamination bactérienne par le contact de l'air, et de maintenir l'effet de la stérilisation obtenue lorsqu e le liquide est versé dans le contenant à une température élevée(85.degree.C). Le système d'échantillonnage a la qualité de s'adapter sur tous types de contenants pourvus de trous de bouchons ayants des filets NPT, qu'ils soient en plastique, en métal ou en acier inoxydable.
