Syringe Adapter With Membrane Housing

Abstract

A syringe adapter includes an outer housing having a first end and a second end positioned opposite the first end with a longitudinal axis extending from the first end of the outer housing to the second end of the outer housing, with the outer housing including a sidewall defining an interior space, a syringe connection configured to be connected to a syringe, and a membrane housing positioned within the interior space of the outer housing and moveable from a first position within the outer housing to a second position within the outer housing spaced from the first position. The membrane housing receives a membrane. The membrane housing includes a biasing member configured to engage the sidewall of the outer housing, and the biasing member configured to provide a biasing force in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the outer housing.
