Single-Use Tubing and Assemblies

Thermo Scientific single-use products aim to reduce the risk of batch, reagent, and time loss with high quality tubing. Silicone is recommended for bioprocessing applications, available in a wide variety of diameters and integrated into fluid transfer assemblies to support different applications and production scales. Interconnectable tubing is produced under CGMP conditions in ISO 7 clean areas to enable a high level of quality. Tubing products are characterized using ISO, USP, EP, and ASTM test methods to validate performance and provide reliable and consistent performance.

To support aseptic fluid transfer, tubing can be sterilized by most methods including autoclave, gamma irradiation, and ethanol. We also offer a secure supply chain with tubing manufactured within several global sites and the ability to support lean manufacturing freeing valuable clean room and storage space.

Tubing and assemblies are used at many steps in the bioprocessing workflow to preserve closed, sterile systems. These include media and buffer preparation and transfer, sample loading, media changes, harvesting, and sample purification. Featuring a low-binding surface and free of phthalate plasticizer and peroxide, the tubing’s potential for leachables, extractables, or many chemical interaction with the processed fluid can be highly reduced to help protect your sample. As your process scales, larger diameter tubing with the same composition and specifications is available. To help prevent leaks, our tubing assemblies are secured with the Thermo Scientific BioRetention Device which forms an even compression 360-degree seal. 

Single-use tubing and assemblies are efficient and designed to reduce contamination risk.
 

Our systems can:

• Simplify process setup and changeover: Quick and easy installation can reduce downtime
• Reduce contamination risk: Single-use design can reduce cross-contamination
• Decrease cleaning needs: Reduces the need for cleaning and sterilization between uses
• Scale easily across manufacturing stages: Flexible and adaptable for various production scales
• Support CGMP-ready documentation: Supports compliance with regulatory standards
• Enable reliable supply: Supports consistent quality and availability for operational efficiency
