Abstract: A device including: a bag, a tube section having a wall defining a free longitudinal space, and a plastic connector, which are all fused together, the wall including a contact layer made of a material other than PVC, selected from PE, EVA, PP, ETFE, and PVDF, and a functional layer including at least one basic functional layer of a material selected for the function thereof (flexibility, sturdiness, handling, opacity or transparence, gas barrier) and selected from the family including PE, PET, a PA, EVA, EVOH, SEBS, PETG, and PVDF, a bag, another tube section, and/or a connector fused to the biopharmaceutical tube and including a contact layer made of a material capable of being in contact with the biopharmaceutical material, which is capable of being fused onto itself, and which is identical or similar to the material of the contact layer of the biopharmaceutical tube.

Abstract: A connection part providing communication between biopharmaceutical containers and/or conduits, includes a connection sheath (32) and two connection skirts (38a, 38b). The connection sheath (32) and both connection skirts (38a, 38b) have resiliency such that the connection part (30), from a disassembled state, is transversely stretchable, at the site of both connection skirts (38a, 38b) thereof, until transversely widened without loss of integrity so as to be made threadable through both collars (14, 24). Then, due to the resiliency thereof, the connection part contacts, with resilient clamping for support and with sealability, the coupled portion of the outer surface of both collars (14, 24). Moreover, from the assembled state, the connection part is transversely stretchable, at the site of both connection skirts (38a, 38b) thereof, until transversely widened so as to be capable of being unthreaded from both collars (14, 24) and thus be converted to the disassembled state.

Abstract: A mixing container includes a flexible container, mixing elements and an upper bearing having a rigid flange. The flange is provided with an insertion passage that fluidically communicates with the inside space on one end and with the outside of the container on the other end. The flange is fixed in a rigid and sealing manner to the upper part of the wall of the container around an insertion opening, the insertion passage and the insertion opening communicating fluidically. The flange also supports, on the inside thereof, an upper bearing that is arranged inside, adjacent to the insertion passage, without preventing the fluidic communication between the insertion passage and the insertion opening. The mixing container is used to receive a biopharmaceutical content to be mixed.

Abstract: Process of producing a biopharmaceutical product includes providing a pouch unit including a pouch and at least one port, and optionally, a functional device; filling the pouch with the product; carrying out the production process, and at at least one stage thereof, using or generating a liquid or small solid incident body within the biopharmaceutical product; the pouch unit incorporating a support and replacement element formed by or integrated in the pouch wall, or in the port or functional device so as to be accessible from the inside space and be in direct physical contact with the contents of the pouch, arranged so as to be able to be loaded with the incident body and pass between the support and replacement element and the contents, such that the incident body is loaded on the support and replacement element when it is not or should not be within the biopharmaceutical product.
