PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid transfer method preventing liquid in a container from foaming to promptly transfer medicine in a medicine container to a syringe.SOLUTION: There is provided a method for transferring liquid in a container to a syringe through a needle tube of the syringe by using a container holder holding a container whose opening part is hermetically closed by an elastic packing section, and a syringe holder holding the syringe. The method comprises: a gas-involving process of involving gas in the syringe a puncture process of puncturing the needle tube into the elastic packing section a liquid-transferring process of placing the needle tip of the needle tube on the liquid phase portion of the container and pulling the pusher of the syringe after the puncture process to transfer part of the liquid in the container to the syringe and a gas-transferring process of placing the needle tip on the gas phase portion of the container and pushing the pusher after the liquid-transferring process to transfer part of the gas in the syringe to the container.COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】容器の液体に泡立ちを発生させないことで薬剤容器の薬剤を注射器へ速やかに移動させる液体移送方法を供することを目的とする。【解決手段】開口部を弾性詰部により密閉された容器を保持する容器保持機と、注射器を保持する注射器保持機とを用いて、容器の液体を注射器の針管から注射器へ移送させる方法であって、注射器に気体を含有させる気体含有工程と、弾性詰部に針管を穿刺させる穿刺工程と、穿刺工程の後、針管の針先を容器の液相部に配置させ、注射器の押子を引くことで容器の液体の一部を注射器へ移送させ液体移送工程と、液体移送工程の後、針先を容器の気相部に配置させ、押子を押すことで注射器の気体の一部を容器へ移送させる気体移送工程と、を有する。【選択図】図3
