Embodiment Construction

[0043] right now figure 1 for reference, figure 1 Illustrated is a configurable port device 10 for a container V according to one aspect of the present disclosure. Preferably, the container V is of the type used when handling fluids under sterile conditions, e.g. for the preparation of biologicals, pharmaceuticals, etc. (including but not limited to bulk intermediate storage, cell culture resuspension, virus inactivation, final formulation seedlings, final filling, or use as bioreactor / fermenter). In the most preferred embodiment, the container V comprises at least one wall W made of a thin flexible plastic film, which means that it can be folded and when filled can fit into a wall determined by the fluid in the inner compartment I. shape. This is in contrast to rigid materials, which generally do not change shape as a result of fluid being introduced into container V, although capable of flexing under considerable force.

[0044] The container V may also include an agitat...

Abstract

A configurable port fitment includes an adapter for forming a locking engagement with a connector associated with a vessel. A kit and related methods may use the configurable port fitment.

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 267,263, filed December 7, 2009, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates generally to fluid handling, and more particularly to a configurable port fitment for a container, a kit of parts, and an associated method. Background technique [0003] Fluid handling applications often employ containers to at least temporarily receive and contain fluids. For example, during bioprocessing, airtightly sealed bags formed from flexible plastic films are often used for bulk intermediate storage, cell culture resuspension, virus inactivation, final dispensing , or as a bioreactor. In any case, such containers or bags almost universally include one or more ports for use in operations such as introducing or withdrawing fluids through a length of tubing, powder filling, or receiving probes or sampling units. [0004] Often...
