Slovak term or phrase:

hliníková pertľa

English translation:

aluminium seal

Slovak term

hliníková pertľa

Slovak to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
liekovka .... uzavretá gumovou zátkou, **hliníkovou pertľou** a polypropylénovým diskom

Does this mean an aluminium cap of some kind? I see from the EDQM List of Standard Terms (Dec. 2002 edition) that the official Slovak equivalent of "cap" (under the heading of "Containers" for medicinal products) is "viečko".

I suspect that "pertľa" may mean something more specific than "cap".
What is the literal meaning?


"hliníková pertľa" looks like an official term. See, for example:

gumená zátka, hliníková pertľa, umelohmotný kryt, písomná informácia pre používateľa, ...
www.zdravie.sk/lieciva/doc/SPC51927.doc

Could it be an aluminium flip-off cap?
Proposed translations (English)

Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 6, 2008:
This is how I imagine it: Disk-like plastic cap (polypropylénovým diskom?) on the top, as shown in Pavel's second link. Under that, the "hliníková pertľa", possibly attached to the plastic cap, as shown here: http://www.rxlist.com/curosurf-drug.htm - 2nd page, scroll down. And under the aluminium part, the rubber stopper. The flip-off (or flip-up) part is the plastic cap. Under that, there is the aluminium tear-off part (pertľa). Pavel's link makes it clear that you can have flip-off and tear-off combined.
Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 6, 2008:
All the answers have given me a lot to think about To sum up: I think pertľa is part of the cap, not the whole cap. It may have moved away from its original meaning "braid". It seems to be used in the generalised sense of some kind of strip or tape. Not sure we can arrive at a definitive answer this time. I may be putting people to unnecessary trouble: if it's a standard term, it may be in some glossary somewhere.

Igor konecne sa mi podarilo nazriet do textu a obrazkov, ktore uviedol Dylan. Nemohla som ich najskor zvacsit a tak som tapla v nejasnosti. V texte od D. je pouzite liecivo Desferal. Vo vami uvedenej webke je to iny uzaver o akom sa pise v texte o Desferal(e). Na internete sa mi podarilo najst Desferala a ako ho aplikovat. V textoch sa hovori len o rubber stopper a ten treba dezinfikovat skor ako sa don vsunie ihla. Stary znamy sposob injekcna striekacka a infuzia.

Igor Liba Dec 5, 2008:
pertľa / pertle / pertli Mária viem čo je pertľa aj pertle aj pertli v prípade tkanín. Čo sa týka liekoviek je to podľa mňa jednoducho hliníkový uzáver, ktorý sa strhne takým spsôobom ako keď otváraš keksy a ťaháš za úzky pásik (lem) dookola celého balenia. Nemá to podľa mňa nič spoločné s tvarom alebo vzorom ale so "spôsobom manipulácie"

Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 5, 2008:
Just a thought - All the comments have been very helpful, but it's still rather a mystery to me why they use that particular word, pertľa. Following up the idea of "sealing cap", I found this patent: www.patentstorm.us/patents/5016770/description.html (sealing cap for antibiotics etc.). It refers to a "knurled tongue". The knurling (a criss-cross pattern) perhaps looks something like braid.
Igor Liba Dec 5, 2008:
I would use „aluminium wrapper“ in this case *
Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 5, 2008:
To Igor - Thanks for the suggestion. Here, for example: http://www.rxlist.com/curosurf-drug.htm - on the 2nd page, I found details of the cap (with illustrations) in English. Terms used: flip up, aluminium portion, aluminium wrapper.
Igor Liba Dec 5, 2008:
just one suggestion - I tired to google "pertľou" and compare Slovak and English versions of package inserts for e. g. Curosurf, Berinin® P, Soyacal etc.

Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 4, 2008:
"hliníková pertľa" certainly doesn't look like an exact equivalent of "flip-off cap". I've pointed this out to the client. I imagined "pertľa" as some sort of edge - a flange, as you suggest.
Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 4, 2008:
I have pointed out to the client that pertľa means braid. My reasons for asking the question were: a) pertľa isn't in my dictionaries, and b) I have an English document (sent to me as reference material) which uses the term "flip-off cap" at the corresponding point in the text.
Jan Szelepcsenyi, PhD Dec 4, 2008:
Braid or seam, flange, border? We insist on the term braid because you asked, how to translate the word "pertľa". You are right, the aluminium is not woven, but may be textured. If the aluminium is only surrounding a plate or a plug. it is called in Slovak "obruba". Aluminium braid proposed by Denisa should be correct.
Dylan Edwards (asker) Dec 4, 2008:
Thanks for the answers - I see you're unanimous on "braid". I have not previously come across aluminium braid in the packaging of pharmaceutical products. I'm wondering if the aluminium is literally woven in some way, or is it just textured?

Note from asker:
This looks interesting. Some of these caps, it seems, are both flip-off and tear-off. 'Tear-off' probably means pulling the pertľa. I wish I had one of these vials so I could understand this clearly...

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thank you everyone. It all helps - knowing that 'braid' is the literal meaning, for a start. This answer, especially the 2nd link, comes closest to the way I understand it. It still seems a little ambiguous, whether the pertľa is just the strip that you pull - doesn't pertľa convey this sort of meaning? - or whether it's the whole aluminium part surrounding the rubber stopper. The 2nd link is a useful line of inquiry, anyway."

trimmed braid

This term belongs to a knitted material. It could help you to adapt it for your case as "aluminium braid", because, according to your description, there is a disk held by a AL braid. It is not a AL cap, as for the cap is made from one material.
