The new Steam-Thru Connection from Colder Products enables sterile connections to be made with greater speed and process integrity. This new connection device enables biopharmaceutical companies to sterilize the flow path and initiate connections between a bioreactor and media bag without adding plumbing connections or process steps.

 

The design uses a steam trap to rid the connection of steam during the sterilization process, instead of traditional steam-in-place processes, which create "dead legs" where trapped steam with remnant microorganisms can result in contamination. Dispos-able, the STC eliminates cleaning and process validation issues associated with re-useable connections. The STC works with existing systems without retrofit.
