0.1µm AseptiCap® KS Large
MDI AseptiCap® KS PES membrane capsule filters are validated for mycoplasma removal and are used for sterile media filtration in mammalian cell culture. The filters meet key process requirements such as high retention efficiency, very high protein recoveries, extremely low extractables, high throughputs, wide chemical compatibility etc.
- Absolute retention
- 100% integrity tested
- Low protein binding
- Very low hold up volume in filters
- High flow rates
- Serial construction with prefilter for higher throughput with fouling streams
- Bioburden maintained below 1000 cfu/device
- Endotoxin level certified to be <0.25 EU/ml
- Widest range of end connections
- Products available for total scalability from a few ml to thousands of liters
- Total traceability through unique serial number for each filter
- Individual certificate of quality for each device
- Sterilizable by EO gas or autoclaving
Sterile Filtration of:
- Cell culture media
- Cell culture media containing serum
- Media additives
- Final product concentrates
