Abstract

A fluid ducting assembly enables flow communication between a syringe and one of a vessel and a dispenser for dispensing a fluid contained therein. The fluid ducting assembly includes a base having first, second, and third members for connection to and providing flow communication with the syringe, the vessel and the dispenser, respectively. The fluid ducting assembly further includes a flow controller within the base enabling a flow path between the first and second members or between the first and third members. The flow controller has a first operative position in which the flow path between the first and second members is enabled or a second operative position in which the flow path between the first and third members is enabled. The flow controller is readily switchable from its first to its second operative position but not readily switchable from its second to its first operative position.
