fig1 a shows one example embodiment of a multicompartment container for a medical solution . the container comprises a first compartment 1 , a second compartment 2 and a third compartment 3 . the first compartment 1 contains a first single solution , the second compartment 2 contains a second single solution and the third compartment 3 is empty or mainly empty . the third compartment 3 is provided with an outlet port 4 for outlet of the medical solution to a patient . the first compartment 1 is separated from the second compartment 2 by means of a first peelable seal 5 . the second compartment 2 is separated from the third compartment 3 by means of a second peelable seal 6 . the first compartment 1 is filled with the first single solution to a first filling degree , fd 1 ( not shown ). the second compartment 2 is filled with the second single solution to a second filling degree , fd 2 ( not shown ). the first filling degree , fd 1 , is larger than the second filling degree , fd 2 . in the following drawing figures corresponding reference numbers will be used for corresponding features . fig1 b shows a cross - section taken through aa of fig1 a . in fig1 b it is indicated by way of dimension of the first and the second compartment , respectively , that the first filling degree , fd 1 , is larger than the second filling degree , fd 2 , i . e . the degree of filling of the first single solution in the first compartment 1 is larger than the degree of filling of the second single solution in the second compartment 2 . the filling degree , fd 1 , of the first compartment 1 and the strength of the first peelable seal 5 is chosen in such a way that it is possible to manually apply enough pressure on the first compartment 1 in order to rupture the first peelable seal 5 between the first and the second compartment 1 , 2 . the filling degree of the second compartment , fd 2 , is chosen in such a way that it is made considerably difficult to rupture the first 5 or the second 6 peelable seal by manually applying pressure on the second compartment 2 . fig1 c shows a cross - section taken through aa of fig1 a when the first peelable seal 5 has been ruptured . when the first peelable seal 5 has been ruptured and the first and the second compartment 1 , 2 are in fluid communication a mixing compartment 7 is constituted . mixing together of the first and the second single solution takes place in the mixing compartment 7 . the mixing compartment 7 is filled to a third filling degree , fd mc , ( not shown ) which is larger than the second filling degree , fd 2 . the filling degree of the mixing compartment , fd mc and the strength of the second peelable seal 6 is chosen in such a way that it is possible to manually apply enough pressure on the mixing compartment 7 in order to rupture the second peelable seal 6 between the mixing compartment 7 and the third compartment 3 . in one example embodiment of the invention the strength of the first and the second peelable seal 5 , 6 is more or less equal . fig1 d shows a cross - section taken through aa of fig1 a when the first 5 and subsequently the second 6 peelable seal has been ruptured . at this stage the multicompartment container includes an outlet compartment 8 containing the medical solution ready for delivery . the medical solution is delivered to the patient via the outlet port 4 . the outlet port 4 may be openable for delivery of the medical solution by an opening means such as a valve member , a peelable seal or a frangible pin . fig2 a shows an enlarged part of fig1 b comprising a first and a second main sheet 1 a , 1 b connected together by means of a peelable seal 5 . between the first and the second main sheet is formed an angle α . this angle α is related to the filling degree in the first compartment , fd 1 , in such a way that a higher filling degree renders an increased angle α between the first and the second main sheet 1 a , 1 b . the actual determinant for the rupturing of the first peelable seal 5 is a crackpropagation angle β . the crackpropagation angle β , is the angle between the first and the second main sheet 1 a , 1 b at the point where the rupture starts . the crackpropagation angle β depends on the specific material and the specific production process . thus , a higher filling degree in the first compartment , fd 1 increases the angle α between the first and the second sheet 1 a , 1 b and thereby increases the probability / simplicity for exceeding the crackpropagation angle β and rupturing the peelable seal 5 when manually squeezing the first compartment 1 . fig2 b shows a diagram illustrating the ratio between an opening force , f and a filling degree , fd . a higher filling degree , fd , requires a lower opening force , f . according to the present invention the following ratio between the first , second and third filling degree is required : fd 1 = filling degree of the first compartment 1 fd 2 = filling degree of the second compartment 2 fd mc = filling degree of the mixing compartment 7 for handling reasons the first filling degree , fd 1 , should be larger than 40 %, the second filling degree , fd 2 , less than 45 % and the third filling degree , fd mc , larger than 10 %. a multicompartment container according to the present invention would typically be configured sufficiently large for containing 0 . 5 to 20 litres of medical solution . large volumes of medical solution are especially of interest when performing longlasting treatments , e . g . nightly treatments such as continuous peritoneal dialysis or in connection with intensive care . below are disclosed two example embodiments of multicompartment containers and how their respective filling degrees are determined . a 100 % filling degree is determined for each of the first 1 , second 2 and mixing 7 compartment in the multicompartment container . fig3 shows a diagram illustrating a measurement for determining a 100 % filling of a compartment . the compartment is considered to be filled to 100 % when a pressure , p , required to fill the compartment with a liquid solution to a volume , v , increases exponentially as shown in fig3 . the volume corresponding to a compartment filled to 100 % is determined by drawing a normal to the exponential curve and reading the value of the volume , v , where it crosses the x - axis . for handling reasons a corresponding compartment is normally not filled to more than 85 %, i . e . such a compartment has a filling degree of 85 %. the resulting data , i . e . the determination of the respective volume , v , considered to fill a compartment to 100 %, is used for calculating data providing basis for the diagram shown in fig4 b and 5 b . for these calculations the following formula is applied . fd mc = filling degree of the mixing compartment 7 fd 1 = filling degree of the first compartment 1 fd 2 = filling degree of the second compartment 2 v 1 = volume of solution corresponding to 100 % filling degree of the first compartment 1 v 2 = volume of solution corresponding to 100 % filling degree of the second compartment 2 v mc = volume of solution corresponding to 100 % filling degree of the mixing compartment 7 the resulting diagrams shown in fig4 b and 5 b are providing basis for determining the preferred values of the respective filling degrees , fd 1 , fd 2 and fd mc . fig4 a shows one example embodiment of a multicompartment container for a medical solution where the first 1 and the second 2 compartment is substantially of
