New sterilising-grade high flux PES filter for fast, economical buffer filtration from process development to full-scale manufacturing
Millipore developed a new high flux sterilising-grade polyethersulphone (PES) filter for the filtration of buffers, pH adjusters and other clean aqueous intermediate process solutions. Millipore Express SHF (sterilising-grade high flux) hydrophilic 0.2um filters rovide superior flux, high sterility assurance and broad chemical compatibility with a wide range of buffer chemistries (pH 1-14), including acids and sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
The patented asymmetric composite membrane delivers high permeability and flow rates up to two times faster than competitive sterilising-grade filters.
Improving process efficiency by up to 50%, the Millipore Express SHF filters allow biopharmaceutical manufacturers to either reduce filtration area while maintaining the same batch volume, or double output capacity without increasing filtration area requirements.
To sum up, the main advantages of Millipore Express SHF filters are broad chemical compatibility and two times faster flow.
Millipore Express SHF filters are available in a variety of formats to meet customer needs from process development to full-scale manufacturing.
