Abstract: A method for transferring objects (7) into a controlled environment (3) and a transfer device (1) having a controlled environment (3) having a passage (2) are provided. The passage (2) is closable using a cover (5) from the inside (4), in particular inside the controlled environment (3) and is closable using a package (6) containing an object (7) to be transferred from the outside (8), and having a decontamination device (9), which is configured for a decontamination of the passage (2). A checking unit (10) is configured for a check of a function of the decontamination device (9).

Abstract: The contamination-free introduction of a sterile object from a vessel, which has been closed by means of a semipermeable cover, into a working chamber, which is surrounded by a wall, of a containment firstly comprises a portal unit having an access flange which is arranged in the wall and which forms a passage from the outside into the working chamber, and a door which sealingly closes the passage and which, in order to be opened, can be moved into the working chamber. A vessel receptacle has a repository for holding a vessel that has been introduced into the vessel receptacle, an opening for the introduction of the vessel into the repository, and a flange for interacting with the access flange. A decontamination unit is designed to decontaminate an outer surface of the cover when the door has been closed. Based on this arrangement, a method for introduction is also disclosed.
