An apparatus for attaching a tube segment (24, 124, 224) to a bag (10, 140, 240) by fusing them together in an aseptic form, fill and seal operation is provided. The apparatus includes a sterile processing chamber in which a sterilized tube segment and a pair of opposing wall portions (28, 30) of a flexible bag are to be located. The sterilized tube section has an open end which is to be placed in communication with an interior space of the bag. A tuber inserter is at least partially located within the processing chamber and arranged to grip the tube segment and place the tube segment between the wall portions of the bag. At least one member is provided for fusing the tube segment between the wall portions of the bas so that the open end of the tube segment is in communication with the interior space in the bag. A bag formed using the apparatus and a method of forming the fused tube-on-bag are also provided. |
