Fluorodyne EX grade EDF filters are 0.2 micron rated high capacity, low protein binding sterilizing grade filters.Incorporating a built-in prefiltration layer and validated to retain B. diminuta at a challenge level of 107 cfu/ cm2 of membrane, Fluorodyne EX grade EDF filters are ideal for the sterile filtration of cell harvest material and challenging intermediate and final bulk biological process fluids..
Mini Kleenpak™ capsules are compact filters used in the laboratory for volumes of 2 L to 50 L in process development, and in pilot and manufacturing scale operations if processing requirements do not demand a large filter.These filters are the smallest capsule filters in the UpScaleSM Program range to utilize a pleated membrane, and are excellent for modeling filter performance at large production scale.
