The invention relates to a protective housing for a biopharmaceutical liquid bag having a lower shell with a bottom and side walls, and an upper shell. The upper shell includes a housing for receiving the bag, and can be inserted into the lower shell, in such a way that the opening of the housing is adjacent to and facing the bottom of the lower shell, and in such a way that the upper shell is laterally held in place between the side walls of the lower shell.

Protective housing for a biopharmaceutical liquid bag, protective assembly and method of assembly thereof

The container includes a lower wall and an erect side wall limiting an upper opening of a housing for accommodating a flexible pouch containing a fluid; containment elements including a containment wall, the gap between its peripheral edge and the side wall being limited; the containment wall adapted to be applied against the pouch and held fixed in this position by holding elements arranged in the container and borne by the containment elements by a structural and functional combination, and being movable between an inactive retracted state and an active expanded state, in which a distal end part is either moved away from the side wall or applied there against without any chance of sliding; and adapted to be applied at any desired location of a zone of the side wall such that the containment wall can be applied and held against the pouch regardless of how full the latter is.

Rigid container for a flexible pouch for holding a biopharmaceutical fluid, assembly comprising such a flexible pouch and such a container, and method for using such a container

Disclosed is a device for transporting a biopharmaceutical fluid, including an inner bag forming an inner chamber adapted and intended for receiving a biopharmaceutical fluid, an outer container including an outer receptacle, the outer receptacle including a wall forming an outer chamber, an expandable protective element arranged at least partially between the outer receptacle and the inner bag and adapted to receive the inner bag, the expandable protective element being adapted to expand in volume to an expanded state so as to be interposed between the outer receptacle and the inner bag, the expandable protective element in the expanded state surrounding the inner bag and filling the space between the wall of the outer receptacle and the inner bag.

Device for conveying a bag comprising a biopharmaceutical fluid and systems and a method using same

A support device (), mounted on an upper edge of a container (), includes lifting elements that define a support surface () which extends transversely outwards from an inner edge (). The upper end () of a flexible pouch for biopharmaceutical product can rest on this support surface, the rest of the 3D-type pouch extending into the container. The slot () which separates the support surface into two portions defines a guide path for a flexible supply line () for the pouch () that is connected at its bottom to the end (). A convex surface is formed at the rear end of the slot and above the edge of the container, so as to guide and facilitate the passage of the line () into the housing, when the filling state is sufficiently advanced. The causes of poor deployment of the pouch are thus minimized, without human intervention.

Method for loading a 3D flexible pouch to be filled, system for loading and storing this flexible pouch and associated support device

A disposable mixing vessel comprising a flexible container, a centrally disposed shaft having first and second ends with one or more impellers thereon and a magnetic element associated with a first shaft end, a first flange adapted to rotatably engage the first shaft end and a second flange adapted to rotatably engage the second shaft end.

Disposable mixing vessel

A method of mixing including providing a flexible container which comprises at least two components, assembling the components from outside the flexible container to form a centrally disposed magnetic driven shaft with at least one impeller, whereby the integrity of the flexible container is maintained, filling the flexible container having the centrally disposed magnetic driven shaft with one or more ingredients of the contents to be mixed; engaging a magnetic element of the centrally disposed magnetic driven shaft with an external magnetic drive element; analyzing the contents of the flexible container using at least one sensor or a sampling line on the flexible container; and draining the contents of the flexible container through a drain port at the bottom of the flexible container.
