The invention provides a reducing sugar-containing fat emulsion comprising an oil-in-water fat emulsion available upon emulsification of a fat with an emulsifier wherein a reducing sugar and at least one buffer substance selected from among organic acids with acid dissociation exponents in water within the range of 5.0-7.5 and their salts are concurrently contained in the water phase thereof, with the emulsion having been adjusted to pH 5.0-7.5; a reducing sugar-containing fat emulsion product which comprises a medicinal fluid containing a reducing sugar and a fat as sterilized with carbon dioxide gas dissolved therein and contained in a plastic infusion container, said plastic infusion container being accommodated together with a carbon dioxide gas absorber in a substantially oxygen-impermeable secondary container; and a method for their preparation and sterilization. The reducing sugar-containing fat emulsion is stable and of high quality, because it is inhibited against formation of free fatty acids, decomposition of the reducing sugar, and hence coloration.

Disclosed is a resin laminate comprising: an outer layer formed from a linear polyethylene having a specific density; an inner layer formed from a linear polyethylene having a specific density; and an intermediate layer(s) provided between the outer layer and the inner layer, wherein at least one intermediate layer comprises a linear polyethylene having a specific density different from those of the linear polyethylenes for forming the outer layer and the inner layer; and at least one layer of the outer, inner and intermediate layers is formed from a linear polyethylene composition containing a high-density polyethylene having a specific density. Also disclosed in a container formed from the resin laminate. The resin laminate is excellent in hygienic qualities, transparency, flexibility and heat resistance. The container is hardly distorted even when subjected to a sterilization process under severe conditions, and is excellent in heat resistance, sealing strength, drop strength, transparency and flexibility.
