DPTE-BetaBag®
DPTE-BetaBag®
The single-use DPTE-BetaBag® is a solution for safe, fast and contamination-free transfer of components to maintain high speed production.
The DPTE® system is based on the interaction of an Alpha part with a Beta part – each fitted with a door, a lock and a sealing function.
Getinge DPTE® Solutions
Getinge develops, manufactures and supports complete DPTE® transfer systems for aseptic production processes.
Overview
The DPTE-BetaBag® provides bidirectional containment without intermediate bio-decontamination. Safe leak-tight transfer is assured by these RTU (Ready To Use) or RTS (Ready To Sterilize) products.

We partner with multiple liquid transfer experts to supply the industry standard in single-use aseptic liquid transfer solutions using the single-use DPTE-BetaBag® technology. Read more about two of our partners.

Partner profile: Merck
The Millipore® portfolio’s Mobius® single-use (SU) final fill assemblies allow you to rapidly respond to manufacturing demands by eliminating cleaning, reducing setup time and minimizing the risk of cross-contamination. These assemblies contain SU components, including sterile connectors, 2D header bags, overmolded 1.5” TC multi-tube manifolds, peristaltic pump tubing, filling needles and the DPTE-BetaBag®. The DPTE-BetaBag® and Alpha port connection enable Mobius® SU components to be safely installed into the filling machine for sterile transfer and filling of the liquid drug product.

Partner profile: Saint-Gobain Life Sciences
Saint-Gobain Life Sciences’ patented overmolding technology in single-use assemblies enables customers to increase productivity, reduce contamination risk, and ensure product integrity. Their vertically integrated components such as Pure- Fit® SIB connectors, BarbLock® retainers, and bioprocess bags, coupled with industry-proven silicone tubing, SPT-60L, can help achieve your critical filling process requirements. Saint-Gobain Life Sciences partners with Getinge for their customizable DPTE-BetaBag® solution: sterile, single-use liquid transfer from source bag to filling needles for demanding aseptic processing environments.
Component Insertion
Components such as stoppers, plungers, plastic bottles can be inserted into a sterile zone.
With pre-filled single-use DPTE-BetaBag® the complete sterility is guaranteed, there is no maintenance, no cleaning, no washing and no prior decontamination. It is a process time reduction.
Environmental Monitoring (EM)
To control sterility inside isolators, petri dishes can be inserted through DPTE®-BetaBag.
Validated system
The validation of our DPTE-BetaBag® complies with international regulations:
- Mechanical validation: leak testing of DPTE® Beta unit; leak testing if bag welded onto DPTE®, seal strength of the bag
