ABSTRACT:
A dispensing and packaging system for pellets such as ampules or vials. The system comprises an elongated resilient plastic tube in which the pellets are arranged in a line. The tube is of slightly smaller inner diameter than the pellets; and it is slit along its length so that it expands circumferentially to accomodate the pellets. The plastic material of the tube is sufficiently flexible and resilient at room temperatures to neck down in regions between adjacent pellets or in regions of the pellets which are of small diameter. This necking down provides restraint against axial movement of the pellets to hold them securely in the tube while allowing them to be dispensed individually with a minimum of difficulty.
