Fluid coupling devices can be configured for use in fluid systems for purposes of providing a single-use, aseptic disconnection functionality that can substantially limit fluid spillage when being disconnected. In some embodiments, the coupling portions cannot be functionally reconnected to each other after being disconnected from each other. The coupling portions can be identical to each other in some embodiments. A retainer component of the fluid coupling devices can be removably engaged with the coupling portions while the coupling portions are abutted against each other in an operative arrangement.

A catheter valve for controlling the fluid flow of a medium, in particular a self-closing catheter valve, wherein a main body includes: an inlet and an outlet-, a flexible tube, as a cover, a slider which is movable in the longitudinal direction, and at the inlet of the catheter valve, a stepped barbed part for connecting a supply line; and, in the interior of the main body that comprises two laterally opposite vertical chambers, the catheter valve has two contradirectional downward inclines on the longitudinally movable slider for actuating and guiding two vertically movable magnets, which are arranged on two opposite sides of the valve house and selectively close or open the passage of said valve hose, wherein an adapter can be inserted and fastened at the outlet of the catheter valve and (in addition to the longitudinally movable slider) results in a permanent open position of the catheter valve.
