St. Paul, MN – To simplify closed-system liquid processing, biopharmaceutical manufacturers have long wanted the ability to connect and disconnect tubing aseptically using a single, sterile connection technology. The new AseptiQuik® G DC Connector from CPC adds sterile disconnection capabilities so manufacturers can make quick sterile connections and disconnections using one genderless product, even in non-sterile environments.

“The new AseptiQuik G DC connector’s combined connection/disconnection technology streamlines biopharmaceutical manufacturing significantly. This product enables both sterile connection and disconnection at point of use without requiring any ancillary equipment, helping save time and steps while maintaining quality,” said Anoop Gupta, CPC (Colder Products Company) Senior Product Manager.

The AseptiQuik G DC connector is the newest addition to CPC’s AseptiQuik G line of genderless sterile connectors. “AseptiQuik products are designed to transfer bioprocess liquids quickly and easily,” said Gupta. “The new AseptiQuik G DC connector builds on that legacy by making sterile disconnection a simple process.”

The intuitive “FLIP-CLICK-PULL” design helps users transfer liquids easily and after transfer is complete, a simple two-step disconnection maintains system sterility. AseptiQuik G DC connector hose barb termination sizes include 1/4", 3/8” and 1/2”.

CPC will showcase the new AseptiQuik G DC connectors along with the company’s full portfolio biopharmaceutical process solutions in CPC Booth 3327 at INTERPHEX 2022, May 24-26 at Javits Center in New York City.

Gupta will discuss the new AseptiQuik G DC connectors in his presentation “Optimizing Fluid Transfer Processes for Today and Beyond: Three Important Developments in Aseptic Connection Technology” at the INTERPHEX Technical Theater on Tues., May 24, 10:30 -11:00 a.m.
