POLYCAP SPF 36 1/PK 1 * 1 items
These Polycap™ SPF capsule filters are optimised for prefiltration applications. They are typically used upstream of a Polycap™ AS or Polycap™ TC capsule during enzyme, nutrient media or buffer filtration.
Three layers of filter media: fine glass microfiber (GMF), ultrafine GMF, and polyethersulfone (PES)
Suitable for hard-to-filter solutions, particularly sera and protein solutions
Can be sterilized by autoclaving
Well suited for serum, viral suspension, nutrient, biological, immunological, enzyme, and buffer filtration
Biological filtration, especially serum filtration, is often difficult because of the high concentration of complex particulates, lipids, triglycerides, and lipoproteins in solution that can clog filters. Single-layer membrane filters clog rapidly without proper prefiltration.
Polycap™ SPF prefilters are highly suitable for biological filtration, especially serum, buffer, and enzyme filtration, because of the density graded pre-filtration layers they contain. Prefiltration with Polycap™ SPF can help extend the life of the final filter.
