Washington, D.C. 20590 Research and DEC 1 3 2000 Special Programs Administration Ms. Marilyn Dirkx . Reference No.: 00-0206 Manager, Dangerous Goods Compliance Alaska Airlines Box 68900 Seattle, WA 98168-0900 Dear Ms. Dirkx: This is in response to your July 24, 2000 letter concerning certain carbon dioxide cylinders that are used in a medical device to administer needle-free injections. Specifically, you asked if the cylinders may be carried on board a passenger aircraft in checked or carry-on luggage under the exception in § 175.10(a)(4)(i), 175.10(a)(18) or § 175.10(a)(25) of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (49 CFR Parts 171-180). I apologize for the delay and any inconvenience it may have caused. Based on our review of information provided by a manufacturer of these medical devices, it is our opinion that the cylinders may be carried aboard passenger-carrying aircraft in checked or carry-on luggage under the provision in § 175.10(a)(4)(i). The devices do not qualify for the exceptions in §§ 175.10(a)(18) and 175.10(a)(25). The Federal Aviation Administration is in agreement with this position. Should you have further questions, please contact this office. Sincerely, idward T. Mazzull Director, Office of Hazardous Materials Standards <<>> JUL. 24.2000 10: 35AM ALASKA AIRLINES NO.169 P.2/2 - Allayka Airlines corbin U.S. Department of Transportation 8 175.10 Research and Special Programs Administration Office of Hazardous Materials Standards 06 - 0206 400 Seventh St SW Washington, DC 20590 Attn: Mr. Ed Mazzullo July 24, 2000 Dear Mr. Mazzullo: Recently, a passenger attempted to carry in his checked luggage two small carbon dioxide cylinders used for administering medical injections. They were discovered during CIX screening. (The CT, is an explosive detection x-ray! system that has been instrumental in detecting undeclared hazardous materials.) The screener advised the passenger that the çylinders could not be carried in luggage, and the passenger was forced to remove them from his luggage. The passenger, a physician, was very irritated, and stated that these small carbon dioxide cylinders are very common and that people are carrying them around all the time. According to the supervisor who responded to the call by the CIX operator, the cylinders were smaller than theitype used in live vests that arę approved for carriage by 49CFR 175.10(a) (25). My question to you is this: May small carbori dioxide cylinders used for the administration of medical injections be cartied onboard or transported in checked luggage as permitted in 175.10(a) (25), or 175.10(a)(18), or can they be considered medicinal and allowed per 175.10(a)(4)(i)? Thank you for your response.

Biojector 2000 Description & Specifications The System The Biojector is a high speed delivery system designed to inject medication intramuscularly (IM) or power source to eject mediation through a tiny orifice in a fraction of a second, effectively penetrating the subcutaneously (SC) without a needle. The Biojector employs compressed carbon dioxide (CO2) as skin. Energy Source The Biojector is energized by a standard CO2 cartridge. Each CO2 cartridge delivers an average of 10 injections with proper technique. Installing the CO2 cartridge is a simple procedure, which is described in the Instruction Manual. The CO2 does not interact with the medication. Sterile, Single-Use Biojector Syringe The Biojector is the first jet injector in history to delivery medications from a sterile single-use syringe. unique feature virtually eliminates the risk of bloodborne pathogen cross-contamination to patients and i his plastic syringe is the only part of the system that comes in contact with the patient's skin. This healthcare providers. Advances on Proven Technology Pneumatically powered injectors have been used for many years. Millions of injections have been given, proving that this technology is efficacious. Jet injectors were most widely used to immunize large numbers or people quickly and economically. All of these early devices injected through a stationary was learned that the stationary nozzle, through which the medication was ejected, could pass bloodborne nozzle, which required labor intensive rinsing, cleaning and sterilization for proper maintenance. Later, it pathogens from one patient to another. This cross-contamination problem has been eliminated by the B2000. Unique Design Several important design elements distinguish the Biojector from other jet injection devices. The Biojector removes the possibility of cross-contaminating patients through use of a disposable single-use syringe. After each injection, the old syringe is discarded and a new one is inserted for the next patient. Because of this design, sterilization and daily maintenance are not necessary. Needle-Free Injections into the syringe. The needle is then discarded and the filled syringe is inserted into the device. A sterile, The Biojector Syringe is packaged with a fill needle, which is only used to draw medication from a vial protective cap is provided to prevent touch contamination. This cap is placed over the filled syringe is placed firmly against the skin at a 90° angle, and the actuator is pressed and released to delivery the before the injection. After inserting the syringe into the injector, the protective cap is removed, the injector injection. Five different syringe sizes allow the clinician to achieve various penetration depths for an intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, depending on the patient's body size. The needle-free syringe eliminates "needlephobia" and reduces patient anxiety associated with injections. Many people seem to truly fear injections and may avoid seeking health care because of this phobia.

It appears less intimidating than the delivered more rapidly. (1,, Patients have preferred the Biojector over needle/syringe for the following traditional needle/syringe'. The injection occurs in a fraction of a second ) Local Site Reaction Depending upon the characteristics of the injectate, most people report little to no pain with a Biojector injection. Some drug preparations contain components that cause stinging, burning, aching or other painful reactions and this does not change with the Biojector. Bioject recommends that the medicatio package insert be read carefully so each patient can be advised of a medication's side effects.

The Biojector uses compressed gas (carbon dioxide) and sterile, disposable medication syringes to the power to deliver your medication. It never comes in contact with the medication or your skin. The deliver medication into the body's tissue without using a needle. The compressed gas simply provides actual injection is over in a fraction of a second. What does a Biojector injection feel like? explain if you should expect any of these reactions from the medication you are receiving. when injected. These are normal sensations and should go away in a short time. The doctor or nurse can What kinds of injections can be administered with the Biojector 2000? Intramuscular (IM) and subcutaneous (SC) injections can be administered with the Biojector 2000. How does the device administer the different depths of penetration? the number of syringe, the deeper the penetration of the injection. The size of the orifice, or hole, though which the medication is ejected varies by syringe size. The higher Can I buy a Biojector 2000 for home use? is important to be trained by a medical professional on how to administer injections with the B2000. Yes, but you must have a prescription from your physician. Using the Biojector is fairly simple, however it Is the Biojector 2000 covered by my insurance? You will need to contact your insurance company for information about medical device coverage. Some cover the entire cost, while others do not. What other products are available from Bioject?

The Biojecto mploys compressed carbon dioxide (COz) as a power source to ejec nedication through a tiny orifice in a fraction of a second, effectivel penetrating the skin. Energy Source The Biojector is energized by a standard COr cartridge. Each COr Cuz cartridge is a simple procedure, which is described in the Instruction Manual. cartridge delivcis from 6-10 injections with proper technique.

M012 3 DESCRIPTION Advances on Proven Technology Unique Design Several important design elements distinguish the Biojector from other jer injection devices. Needle-Free Injections Five different syringe sizes allow the clinician to achieve various penetration depths for an intramuscular or subcutaneous injection, depending on desired depth of penetration. The needle-free syringe eliminates "needlephobia" and reduces patient anxiety associated with injections. Many people seem to truly fear injections and may avoid seeking healch care because of this phobia. <<>> 10/18/00 WED 11:59 FAX 503 624 9002 BIOJECT INC.
