0.2μm AseptiPrime® KS Small
mdi AseptiPrime® KS are sterilizing grade PES membrane capsule filters specially designed for very high throughput.
The special asymmetric pre-filter membrane layer with high asymmetric proportion offers high loading and volume handling capacities to provide enhanced protection to the final membrane layer.
These are available in a wide range of sizes and end connections tosuit a multitude of sterilization applications in biopharmaceuticals for process development, pilot scale and production batch sizes.
AseptiPrime® KS filters meet key process requirements such as absolute retention, high protein recoveries and low extractables.
- 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
