Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for storing a bioprosthetic device includes a container for receiving the bioprosthetic device within an opening in the container. The storage apparatus includes an induction seal having a foil layer and a heat seal layer for sealing the opening of the container. A pull tab is located on the induction seal and includes an aperture therein that facilitates bonding the induction seal to the container and/or otherwise sealing the container. A substantially hermetic seal is created by the induction seal. The apparatus may be opened with relative ease by pulling on the pull tab. The apparatus also reduces the risk of spillage of sterilant solution upon opening.
