The combination of both words don't have a known meaning at least in Google.
Etymology alone is the science of understanding how language formed historically, simply speaking. As for aseptic, it has to do with microorganisms, and I don't think it's related to etymology.

therefore, aseptic - without disease-causing microorganisms
