<p>A sterile enclosure (100) contains a transfer port (140) defining a window (142). A port (140) covers the window (142) to maintain the inside of the enclosure (100) as a sealed and sterile environment. A sliding, heated cutting element (152) mounted on the port (140) serves to sterilize and sever a portion of a sterile transfer bag (204). Preferably, the excised portion of the sterile transfer bag assembly (204) is affixed to the port (140) when the port (140) opens. The sliding cutting element (152) remains extended and heated to prevent contamination when the port (140) is open. Further, a heating element (150) is mounted about the window (142) in order to sterilize around the opening when the port (140) is open.</p> |
