Abstract
A high pressure steam sterilized plastic container holding an infusion solution therein is prepared first by providing a flexible container made of plastic material and holding an infusion solution. The container is then sterilized in a saturated steam atmosphere which is pressurized by a gas inert to the infusion solution and does not contain oxygen. The infusion solution in the container is not deteriorated after the sterilization.
