Abstract: A device may include a proximal end and a distal end, an internal cavity of the device is defined between the proximal end and the distal end. The device may include a slider panel defining a channel and a biasing mechanism disposed in the internal cavity, the biasing mechanism configured to bias the slider panel. The device may include a lock pin disposed in the internal cavity and configured to contact the biasing mechanism. The device may include a release pin extending through the lock pin, wherein: an end portion of the release pin extends into the channel, the release pin is configured to travel along a path defined by the channel in response to a movement of the slider panel; and the release pin is configured to cause the lock pin to transition from a first position to a second position in response to the movement.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are embodiments of a sanitary fitting for coupling a fluid conduit to a flexible container to facilitate sterile transfer therebetween, and methods of making and using such a sanitary fitting, whereby the sanitary fitting includes a first annular member having a first annular member bore extending between first annular member first and second ends, the first annular member second end terminating in a flange radially outwardly extending therefrom, the flange comprising a substantially planar face; a second annular member having a second annular member bore extending between second annular member first and second ends, the second annular member couplable to the first annular member to axially align the first and second annular member bores to provide a first fluid flow passageway; and a valve coupled to the second annular member, the valve operable to interrupt fluid flow through a fluid flow path which includes the first fluid flow passageway.
