ABSTRACT:
A transfer system for transferring objects into a barrier isolator is provided. The barrier isolator includes a barrier wall to maintain a decontaminated environment in an isolated space. The transfer system includes a port opening located in the barrier wall. A first port barrier film is sealingly located over the port opening. A container is provided which includes an interior cavity which contains a second, replacement port barrier film and which is adapted to further receive and hold decontaminated objects to be delivered through the port opening and into the isolated space. A container barrier film is sealingly connected to the container to seal the second, replacement port barrier film and the decontaminated objects within the cavity in a decontaminated state. The container barrier film has a first, decontaminated side which faces the cavity, and a second exposed side, positionable adjacent to the port barrier film. A parting and sealing element is located within the isolated space and is adapted to part the first port barrier film and the container barrier film to define a transfer opening in the first port and container barrier films and to simultaneously seal together and decontaminate the edges of the first port and container barrier films such that the exposed and potentially contaminated second sides of the first port barrier film and the container barrier film are locked together and remain isolated from the isolated space allowing the decontaminated objects and the second, replacement port barrier film to be passed into the isolated space.
