Genderless Single-Use Connector

October 30, 2012

Colder Products Company, the leader in connector technology, announces the release of the genderless AseptiQuik® S small format connector to the medical device and analytical instrumentation markets.

The AseptiQuik S with 3.2mm and 6.4 mm options provides a safer connection by ensuring the point-of-connection prevents any exterior contamination from entering the flow path. The easy-to-use genderless design eliminates the need and uncertainty of disinfecting with wipes or sprays at the point of contact. The product is available in multiple hose barb sizes and even has the option of directly connecting into Colder’s widely used MPC connector platform.

"Given the rise of hospital acquired infections (HAI), and the concern of isolating media or bodily fluids from dirty environments, these products provide many new opportunities to improve medical devices and patient safety," said Jim Brown, medical business unit manager for Colder Products Company. "Our bacterial challenge testing shows that with the AseptiQuik S, a user can have a sterile connection in any environment with no additional cleaning, wiping or disinfecting."

The AseptiQuik S is manufactured in an ISO Class 7 certified cleanroom and from biocompatible materials.
