Abstract
Abstract A container for freezing or preserving physiological saline solutions for medical use is disclosed which is resistant to extremely low temperatures and which comprises laminated sheets. Each laminated sheet comprises an inner layer of unstretched film of polyethylene having a viscometric average molecular weight of 1,000,000 or more and a light-scattering average molecular weight of 3,000,000 or more; and an outer layer of polyethylene terephthalate or the like.
