A 3-D flexible bag to be filled with a biopharmaceutical product is formed by assembling of two wall elements and two gussets. At least one connection port is provided, for filling and/or emptying. A substantially parallelepipedal configuration is obtained in a filled state thanks to the unfolding of the gussets combined with the folding of flaps of the two wall elements. A transverse weld, formed at one end, connects the two wall elements of the bag and extends continuously, keeping in a folded-flat state:—an elongate edge portion of one gusset;—an elongate edge portion of the other gusset. This transverse weld has a length corresponding to a determined dimension of the flexible bag in the parallelepipedal configuration.

A method of preparing a pharmaceutical product in a single multiple chamber flexible bag. A pharmaceutical product is introduced in a liquid state into a first chamber of the flexible bag through a first port. The pharmaceutical product is lyophilized within the first chamber of the flexible bag to provide a lyophilized pharmaceutical product. The flexible bag has a second chamber and the first chamber and the second chamber are separated by a breakable seal. The second chamber further includes a reconstituting solution for reconstituting the lyophilized pharmaceutical product in the first chamber. A user may apply pressure to the flexible bag to break the seal and mix the lyophilized pharmaceutical product and the reconstituting solution to order to administer the pharmaceutical product to a patient.

The inner plug is mounted in an opening part of a container body and constitutes a nozzle part. The inner plug is constituted of a resin composite including a cyclic olefin copolymer and a polyethylene resin. A proportion of the cyclic olefin copolymer in 100 parts by weight of the resin composite is 25 to 85 parts by weight, a proportion of the polyethylene resin therein is 15 to 75 parts by weight, and a total amount of the cyclic olefin copolymer and the polyethylene resin is 80 to 100 parts by weight.

A freeze/thaw containment system is provided, having a protecting body and a flexible pouch protected by two plates of the protecting body. The two plates are attached together at a peripheral margin and form a rectangular protecting body. The peripheral margin is mounted in supporting parts of a stationary frame and sliding positioning members are secured to the peripheral margin, so that the peripheral margin is guided and allowed to be displaced inwardly during filling of the pouch, while the protecting body extends generally planar to sandwich and constrain the pouch in empty state of the pouch. This way of holding and retaining the protecting body allows for progressive conformational change of the protecting body due to the change in volume of the pouch when filled with a biopharmaceutical product, while facilitating reverse displacement of the peripheral margin during draining operations.

A disposable wearable micro-flow continuous drug delivery system has an elastic drug storage cavity for extruding and storing liquid drug, wherein one end of the elastic drug storage cavity is communicated with a drug outlet pipe, wherein one end of the drug outlet pipe is communicated with a first micro-flow path and a second micro-flow path for shunting liquid drug, which is far away from the elastic drug storage cavity, wherein an adjusting mechanism is connected between the first micro-flow path and a second micro-flow path, wherein a first valve and a second valve are respectively provided at the surface of the first micro-flow path and adjacent to two different sides of the adjusting mechanism, wherein the disposable wearable micro-flow continuous drug delivery system of the present invention makes the liquid drug have a certain impulse by using the elastic and soft drug storage cavity, which is convenient to inject the liquid drug into the human body, and secondly, the adjusting mechanism is set between the two micro-flow paths, and a plurality of micro valves are set on the two micro-flow paths respectively, which enable the injection volume of the liquid drug to be controlled by controlling the switches of the micro valves located at different positions to help facilitate medical treatment and minimize the effect on the daily living activity of patients.

A tissue collection and processing system for collecting bone fragments and tissue aspirated from a bone. The tissue collection and processing system includes a collection vessel, a collection vessel cap, a processing cover, a first tubing and a fluid withdrawal mechanism. The collection vessel has an opening formed therein to receive bone fragments and tissue aspirated from the bone. The collection vessel cap is capable of engaging the collection vessel to substantially seal the opening. The collection vessel cap or the collection vessel has a first port. The processing cover has an upper surface and a lower surface. The processing cover has a connection port and a bore. The connection port is proximate the upper surface. The bore is fluidly connected to the connection port and extends toward the lower surface. The processing cover has a density that is less than a density of fluid in the aspirated bone fragments and tissue. The fluid withdrawal mechanism is fluidly connected to the connection port with the first tubing to withdraw the fluid from the collection vessel. As fluid is withdrawn from the collection vessel, the processing cover is slidable in the collection vessel.

Provided is a cell preserving vessel which is protected against damage during storage. The cell preserving vessel 1 includes: a vessel body 10 which is made of a flexible resin member and has a cell accommodating part 11; a cell introducing tube 20 which is connected to the vessel body 10 and through which cells are introduced into the cell accommodating part 11; and a pair of tube protecting parts 40 which are arranged to hold the cell introducing tube 20 therebetween and which protect a vicinity of a joined portion of the cell introducing tube 20, the joined portion being joined to the vessel body 10. The tube protecting parts 40 are preferably constituted by sheet members 50 and 60 that form the vessel body 10.

A blood pack donation system configured for use with a lab-on-a-chip device for biomarker collection during whole blood donation including a blood collection container, a biomarker collection container, a first flow path connected to an opening in the blood collection container and to a first outlet opening of a lab-on-a-chip device, a second flow path connected to an opening in the biomarker collection container and to a second outlet opening of the lab-on-a-chip device, and a third flow path connected to a needle and to an inlet opening of the lab-on-a-chip device. The system may be used in a single pass collection procedure. A second version includes a fourth flow path connected to the first flow path and to the third flow path, with a plurality of flow control components that selectively control flow to provide a single pass collection procedure or a multiple pass collection procedure.

An apparatus and method for aseptically filling a container utilizing an adaptor formed of severable and heat-sealable material connected to a tube and container. The adaptor includes a membrane which is unsealed to allow filling by a known filling machine. Once the adaptor tube and container is formed as a unit, it is sterilized. The adaptor is then severed and sealed, creating a usable aseptic liquid product.

A system for filling multiple sterile containers includes a filter with an inlet port and multiple outlet ports, the outlet ports being pre-attached to sterile containers by respective filling lines of each container. Each container has an interior and each of the respective filling lines are connected to a respective container interior. The respective filling lines are sealed to the outlet ports and the containers such that the container interiors are isolated from an external environment except the inlet port, via the filter, forming a combined interior volume which is sterile. A container that is connectable to an outlet port the system has a bladder, a first tube and a second tube connected to the bladder, and a sterilizing filter. The container, the first tube and the second tube, and the sterilizing filter are sterile before water is flowed through the sterilizing filter into the bladder.
