Silicone oil-free syringes are highly preferable for minimizing subvisible particles in the drug. It can be proposed that materials with less protein adsorption property are preferable for the suppression of protein aggregation. It is required to minimize adverse effects of biopharmaceuticals through proper quality control of the drug in a container, based on the understating of physicochemical stability of the protein in solution, the physicochemical properties of the container, and their combinations.
