Patent ID: 8156971

Claim:
A method for handling a hazardous fluid, comprising: penetrating a resealable elastomeric closure of a collection vessel containing the hazardous fluid with a fixed fluid ingress means of a collection vessel connector by releasably interlocking the collection vessel connector to the collection vessel; fluidly coupling a unit dose container with a dose control connector; fluidly coupling the collection vessel connector with the dose control connector wherein an internal chamber of the dose control connector is depressed, thereby compressing an elongated elastomeric valve and extending a first end of the internal chamber through the elongated elastomeric valve and a collection vessel connector valve is biased open; retracting a fluid manipulation regulator of the unit dose container a desired amount; and withdrawing a predetermined quantity of the hazardous fluid from the collection vessel through the collection vessel connector, the dose control connector, and into the unit dose container.
