  • 0.1µm AseptiCap<sup>®</sup> KS-γ 25mm, 50mm

0.1µm AseptiCap® KS-γ 25mm, 50mm

mdi AseptiCap® KS-γ are specially designed filters for process development and formulation development labs with identical materials of construction for easy scale up to larger capsule filters and cartridge filters.

50mm is a special vented device for use with peristaltic pump to ensure easy removal of entrapped air in the upstream.

These are validated for mycoplasma removal and are gamma sterilizable with up to 50 kGy for ready to use disposable assemblies.

Consistent and Reliable Quality:
AseptiCap® capsule filters are produced with ISO 9001 certified quality management systems.
Regulatory Compliance:
Meet all pharmacopeial and compendia requirements and are registered with USFDA DMF #015554
Low Protein Binding:
Results in increased overall product yield
High Throughputs:
Translates to lower filtration costs, less number of filter changes and overall economy of operations.
Low Extractables:
Mean less addition to impurity profile of the biological product from the filters.

Sterile Filtration of:

  •  Cell culture media 
  •  Cell culture media containing serum 
  •  Media additives
  •  Final product concentrates
