Fluorodyne® EX EDF - Kleenpak™ Capsules

Fluorodyne EX grade EDF filters are 0.2 micron rated high capacity, low protein binding sterilizing grade filters. Incorporating a built-in prefiltration layer and validated to retain B. diminuta at a challenge level of 107 cfu/ cm2 of membrane, Fluorodyne EX grade EDF filters are ideal for the sterile filtration of cell harvest material and challenging intermediate and final bulk biological process fluids.

Kleenpak capsules with Fluorodyne EX grade EDF membrane are rugged and compact, and are designed for use in pharmaceutical manufacturing and pilot scale filter evaluation.
