1. A system for delivering fluidic media, the system comprising:
- a housing;
a reservoir disposed within the housing, the reservoir having at least one wall bordering an interior volume for containing fluidic media, the wall being made of a material comprising a cyclic olefin copolymer, the material of the wall is treated with a treatment that substantially prevents light from passing through the material of the wall;
a plunger head arranged for movement in the interior volume of the reservoir to expel fluidic media from the interior volume of the reservoir; and
a fluid conduit in communication with the interior volume of the reservoir for allowing fluidic media contained in the interior volume to be expelled from the reservoir with movement of the plunger head.
