Prevent contamination with small-scale, sterile connections for single-use R&D and PD processing

AseptiQuik® connectors from CPC provide easy and reliable sterile connections for single-use biopharmaceutical processing. Robust designs for 1/8” (3.2mm) to 1” (26.4mm) quickly transfer valuable media. Download our Q&A.

AseptiQuik® connectors from CPC make it easy to create closed bioprocessing systems for low-volume applications such as R&D and product development. With robust, easy-to-use sterile connector designs for tubing as small as 3.2mm (1/8”), our connectors enable technicians to transfer media with more confidence and reduced risk of biological contamination and cross-contamination.

For even greater flexibility in R&D settings, CPC offers combination connectors that enable easy connections between hybrid stainless steel and single-use processing. The AseptiQuik STC connector combines an AseptiQuik sterile connector with a Steam-Thru® II SIP connection that can be mounted directly to a stainless steel vessel via a sanitary termination.

CPC’s sterile connection technologies include genderless AseptiQuik connectors that simplify single-use systems design and process integration and are available in sizes ranging from 6.4mm to 19.0mm (1/4” to 3/4”). Because the connectors are interchangeable-any single-use G series connector mates with any other G series connector-systems are more flexible and minimize supply chain complexity.

The AseptiQuik family offers the broadest range of single-use sterile connectors in the industry, with flow configurations from 3.2mm to 25.4mm (1/8” to 1”). For more information on closed systems for small-scale processes, download our Q&A.
