Merck, P2B005A05, Pellicon® 2 Cassette Media: Biomax® 5 kDa

General description The Pellicon® 2 Ultrafiltration BIOMAX 5 Cassette sets the standard in cassette-style tangential flow filtration devices. P2B005A05 was designed with process scale-up and applications development in mind. Millipore′s BIOMAX 5 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 5 kDa NMWCO. Application Concentration, desalting or buffer exchange of: Protein solutions Polysaccharide solutions Virus suspensions Harvest, washing or clarification of: Cell cultures and lysates Colloidal suspensions Viral cultures Features and Benefits Type A screen (tight screen) Leading-edge void- free membranes to match virtually any separation challenge Short flow path for higher flux and higher resolution separation capability Choice of flow channel configuration providing process optimization capability Predictable, fast, scale-up True linear scalability from laboratory size modules to industrial assemblies for processing thousands of liters Brings higher resolution, improved yields and superior back-pressure resistance Ultracel membranes are composite membranes cast on a microporous substrate for defect-free membranes with superior Analysis Note Gravimetric Extractables: after a water flush Other Notes Prefiltration Rquirements: 100 µm These products are manufactured in a facility which adheres to FDA Good Manufacturing Practices.
