0.1µm AseptiCap® WL/WS Large
MDI AseptiCap® WS are low protein binding hydrophilic PVDF gamma sterilizable membrane capsule filters, designed for sterile filtration of very small fluid volumes in formulation and process development labs.
These capsule filters are validated to meet compendia and regulatory requirements and are well characterized. They meet key process requirements such as absolute retention efficiency, extremely low extractables, high throughputs, wide chemical compatibility and other important characteristics.
- 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
- Wide 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 Autoclaving or EO
Sterile Filtration of:
- Cell culture media
- Growth regulators
- Small Volume Parenterals
