2-270 1 CAP CONNECTOR ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A cap connector is provided, capable as a cap of closing off in a leak-tight bacteria-tight seal a delivery port of a receptacle carrying pharmaceutically-acceptable material or a receiving port of a receiver receiving pharmaceutically-acceptable material or an inlet or outlet port of a filter assembly, and as a connector of making a leak-tight and bacteria-tight connection between any two of the delivery port of the receptacle, the receiving port of the receiver and the inlet or outlet port of the filter assembly, for passage of pharmaceutically-acceptable material therebetween, comprising: a housing of resilient plastic material which defines the walls of a through passage having one end adapted for attachment to one of the ports and another end adapted for attachment to another of the ports, the passage being adapted for carrying pharmaceutically-acceptable material there- between; the portions of the housing defining the passage walls at the said ends of the passage resiliently forming a bacteria-tight and leak-tight seal in a press-fit to the said ports; and a cap closure closing off one end of the through passage; integral with the housing and of the same plastic material, demarked by an annular weak area from the remainder of the housing; and the other end of the through passage being open for attachment to the delivery port of the receptacle or the receiving port of a receiver. The cap closure is removable by tearing it away from the housing at the weak area, to open that end of the passage and convert the cap into a connector, which can be attached at one end in a bacteria-tight and leak-tight seal to one of the said ports and at the other end in a bacteria-tight and leak-tight seal to another of the said ports. Pharmaceutically acceptable material such as liquid for intravenous administration, may be transferred there- between via the through passage.
