    a second component being at least one of a dilutant and a liquid solvent;

    a first container (11) for storing said first component, said first container being closed at a first end (17);

    a second container (13) for storing said second component;

    a first stopper piston dish (19) at a second end of said first container (11), said first stopper piston dish (19) being axially movable within said first container (11);

    a second stopper piston dish (24) at a first end of said second container (13), said second stopper piston dish (24) being axially movable within said second container (13);

    a conveyance shaft (15) connecting said first and second stopper piston dishes (19,

         24), said conveyance shaft (15) ensuring a rigid, tight, and sterile connection between said stopper piston dishes (19,
