Pellicon® 2 Cassette Ultrafiltration Biomax® Module

Description

• General description: The Pellicon® 2 Ultrafiltration BIOMAX 50 Cassette sets the standard in cassette-style tangential flow filtration devices. P2B050A05 was designed with process scale-up and applications development in mind.Millipore′s BIOMAX 50 polyethersulfone membrane has void-free structures that guard against leakage of solutes through microdefects normally associated with voids beneath the thin skins of conventional UF membranes. These void-free membranes are more permeable, resulting in high-flux with equivalent or superior product retention. These void-free membranes provide the advantages of fast, high yield processing and smaller systems.The Pellicon® 2 Cassette Ultrafiltration BIOMAX Module feature a filtration area of 0.5 m2 with a pore size of 50 kDa NMWCO.
• Application: Concentration, desalting or buffer exchange of:Protein solutionsPolysaccharide solutionsVirus suspensionsHarvest, washing or clarification of:Cell cultures and lysatesColloidal suspensionsViral cultures
• Features and Benefits: Type A screen (tight screen)Leading-edge void- free membranes to match virtually any separation challengeShort flow path for higher flux and higher resolution separation capabilityChoice of flow channel configuration providing process optimization capabilityPredictable, fast, scale-upTrue linear scalability from laboratory size modules to industrial assemblies for processing thousands of litersBrings higher resolution, improved yields and superior back-pressure resistanceUltracel membranes are composite membranes cast on a microporous substrate for defect-free membranes with superior
