【 摘 要 】

Solid particles found in an infusion solution under development were examined by scanning electron microscopy combined with X-ray fluorescent elemental analysis. The main fraction of the particles was found to be flakes of corroded glass. The elemental composition of the glass shred surface has proved that the particles originate from the glass matrix, despite the slightly acidic pH of the solution contained. Based on the results, the use of this glass-type as container for this infusion has been rejected.
