Connection equipment and equipment connector
Connection equipment includes an equipment connector comprising a first connecting section, a first liquid flow path that communicates with a equipment, and a first valve that is to open and close the first liquid flow path, a container connector comprising a second connecting section, a second liquid flow path that communicates with the container, and a second valve that is to open and close the second liquid flow path, and a lock mechanism that locks the equipment connector and the container connector in a state where the first liquid flow path is in communication with the second liquid flow path, and that unlocks the connectors in a state where the first valve and the second valve are closed.
Systems, Methods, and Apparatuses for Producing and Packaging Fluids
A liquid concentrate generation system may comprise a manifold having an inlet receptacle including a first piercing member, an outlet receptacle including a second piercing member, and a flow channel connecting the inlet receptacle and outlet receptacle. The system may further comprise a cartridge having an inlet port and an outlet port sealed by a respective first and second cover. The inlet and outlet port may be respectively configured to displace within the inlet receptacle and outlet receptacle from an unspiked position to a spiked position. First and second piercing members may be in communication with the flow channel and spaced apart respectively from the first and second cover in the unspiked position. The first and second piercing members may be isolated from the flow channel and may respectively puncture the first and second cover in the spiked position.
SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR TREATING CANCER CELLS WITH ALTERNATING POLARITY MAGNETIC FIELDS
Systems for destroying or inhibiting cancer cells and other rapidly-dividing cells including an alternating polarity (AP) magnetic field generator and at least one AP electromagnetic coil adapted to be coupled to a target body area, and a controller to control the AP magnetic field generator and at least one AP electromagnetic coil and cause the field generator and coil to apply AP magnetic field having a frequency of 0.5-500 kHz and a field strength of 0.5-5 mT to the target body area to achieve a desired inhibiting effect on cancer cells or other rapidly-dividing cells. Treatments provided by the system may be co-administered with an anti-cancer drug such as a chemotherapy drug, a hormone therapy drug, targeted therapy drugs, immunotherapy drugs, or an angiogenesis inhibitor drug.
Lube distribution apparatus for use with sperm collection device
A lube distribution apparatus for use in connection with a sperm collection device is provided and configured to be installed on the sperm collection device in lieu of the end cap. The lube distribution apparatus comprising a main body having a cylindrical opening at a first end thereof, the cylindrical opening having means for engaging an open end of the sperm collection device. A lubricant reservoir is located within the main body of the lube distribution device for housing lubricant to be used in the sperm collection device. Injection means are provided for injecting lubricant from the lubricant reservoir into the sperm collection device. The lube distribution apparatus may further include an end cap removably affixed to a second end of the main body and enclosing the lubricant reservoir. A vent for allowing outside air to enter the lubricant reservoir during actuation of the injection means may also be provided. The vent may be located in the end cap or, alternatively, directly in the main body of the lube distribution device.
DRUG MIXING DEVICE, DRUG MIXING KIT COMPRISING THE SAME, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
In drug mixing devices of disclosed embodiments, a main flow path extending from one end configured to allow liquid inside the first container to enter the main flow path therethrough to another end configured to allow liquid inside the second container to enter the main flow path therethrough, and a branch flow path branching from the main flow path are formed. The drug mixing device includes a body including a first connection part configured to be coupled with the first container and a second connection part configured to be coupled with the second container, and a backflow prevention part disposed in a partial flow path of the main flow path extending to the one end with reference to the connection point of the main flow path and the branch flow path, the backflow prevention part being configured to prevent liquid from flowing from the connection point to the one end.
ASSEMBLY WITH CONNECTABLE AND DISCONNECTABLE ELEMENTS FOR THE RECONSTITUTION OF FLUID DRUGS AND NUTRIENTS WITH ACTIVE SUBSTANCES IN POWDER, LIQUID OR GEL FORM, AND RELATED METHOD OF USE
Assembly with connectable and disconnectable elements comprises a flexible bag containing liquid solution with a first valve connector, at least one vial with active substance and provided with a hermetic closing cap, a coupling and piercing device couplable to the cap of the vial and an adapter between the first connector and the coupling and piercing device. The adapter has a hollow external body with a first end fixable by screwing to the first connector, an axially bored, coaxial internal stem, the screwing causes the opening of the first connector and a second end including a second valve connector fixable to the coupling and piercing device and is screwable in the external body so that internal stem causes the opening of the second valve connector.
System and methods for treating cancer cells with alternating polarity magnetic fields
Systems and method for destroying or inhibiting cancer cells and other rapidly-dividing cells include applying AP magnetic fields having a frequency of 0.5-500 kHz and a field strength of 0.5-5 mT to a target body area that includes the cancer or other rapidly-dividing cells.
SYRINGE FOR DRUG MIXING KIT, DRUG MIXING KIT, AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
A drug mixing kit according to a disclosed embodiment for mixing a first content in a liquid form in a first container with a second content in a liquid or powder form in a second container includes: a syringe forming therein an accommodation space in which a liquid is accommodated; and a drug mixing device coupled with the syringe and forming therein a drug flow path extending from one end configured to allow the liquid in the accommodation space to flow into the drug flow path therethrough to other end configured to allow the liquid in the second container to flow into the drug flow path therethrough.
SYSTEM COMPRISING A CAP FOR A MEDICAL FLUID CONTAINER AND AN ATTACHMENT PART, MEDICAL FLUID CONTAINER, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A FLUID CONTAINER
A system includes a cap for a medical fluid container and an attachment part. The cap includes at least one first port. The first port includes a septum and a connection structure.
