Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising a connector for connecting a syringe to a container or tubing, wherein the connector comprises a connecting part having an upper end, a break-off part that closes the recess of the connecting part and is connected to the upper end of the connecting part; wherein the break-off part comprises a tamper-evident closure, and a hollow body with a point that is arranged in the recess of the connecting part, wherein the membrane and the hollow body are arranged in the recess of the connecting part in such a manner that the membrane is pierced when the syringe is connected to the connecting part, wherein the membrane is arranged above the hollow body in the recess of the connecting part and therefore, when the syringe is connected to the connecting part, the membrane is pressed by the syringe onto the point of the hollow body, and wherein the membrane and the hollow body are arranged at a non-zero distance from each other in the recess of the connecting part, wherein the break-off part has an unbroken state and a broken state, wherein in the unbroken state the break-off part is an unbroken break-off part, wherein in the broken state the break-off part is a broken break-off part, wherein the break-off part is configured to transition from the unbroken state to the broken state, wherein a transition from the unbroken state to the broken state permits a liquid connection between the syringe and the connector.
