Abstract

A multi-chamber renal dialysis container having at least two compartments and containing concentrated glucose in a first compartment and a hydrochloric acid solution containing electrolytes in a second compartment. The compartments are separated from one another during storage and transportation by separable peel seals, and the solutions can only be mixed with one another by the opening of the peel seals. An outlet of the multi-chamber container is separated by a further peelable seal, whereby a substantially empty third chamber is formed.
