Abstract
A liquid transfer connector comprises an enclosure holding a transfer needle and an exhaust needle. A container of donor liquid may be attached to an inlet end of the transfer needle and a container holding a recipient liquid may be attached to an outlet end of the transfer needle and an inlet end of an exhaust needle. The exhaust needle has an outlet end within the connector which releases displaced fluid into an absorbent mass which sequesters the fluid to prevent leakage.
