The inventor of ApiJect’s breakthrough BFS injection device is Marc Koska, a highly honored “social entrepreneur.” The Prefilled ApiJect Injector is designed for simplicity: Just prior to injection, a fill-finished Blow-Fill-Seal container and intramuscular needle hub are push-twisted together by a healthcare professional.
