PureFlo® PES Filter Cartridges - Pharmaceutical Grade
ThePureFlo® pharmaceutical grade cartridges are designed to produce product sterility. The all-polypropylene construction provides excellent chemical compatibility and superior flow per surface area as compared to other membrane cartridges. PureFlo® pharmaceutical grades cartridges have been designed for final filtration in biopharmaceutical applications. The hydrophilic PES membrane does not require pre-wetting agents, thereby eliminating a potential source of contamination. The PES membrane has low protein-binding characteristics to maximize yields.
No adhesives, binders, or surfactants are used in the manufacturing process. All cartridges are rinsed with pyrogen-free water to reduce extractables and downtime. All filter cartridges are 100% integrity tested to ensure filter performance and quality. PureFlo® pharmaceutical grade filter cartridges are well-suited for critical applications where superior flow and bacterial retention is required.
