Description
Millipore Express® PHF (Process protection, High-Flux) devices provide sterilizing-grade performance, ideal for buffers and other intermediate process fluids. These devices provide broad chemical compatibility, high flow rates and extended throughput for superior process efficiency and economy.
Developed to Enhance Buffer Filtration
Millipore Express® PHF filters use a fast flowing membrane specifically developed for the filtration of buffers, pH adjusters and other aqueous intermediate pharmaceutical and biotech solutions. Designed to offer high-flux performance and improved process economics, Millipore Express® PHF filters are compatible with a wide range of buffer chemistries, including acids and sodium hydroxide.
Filter Applications
- Buffer solutions
- Process additives and intermediates
Benefits
- Sterilizing-grade
- Faster flow rates than most sterilizing-grade filters, reducing process footprint
- Multiple steam-in-place or autoclave sterilization cycles
- Single-use, gamma ready formats
- Broad chemical compatibility, high and low pH 1–14
- Fully scalable product offering
