PROPOR HC Filter

Single Use Assembly Benefits

  • Superior Throughput and Capacity: The optimised membrane configuration with a high-capacity prefilter layer extends filter life and minimises premature blockage, ensuring efficient processing of complex solutions.
  • Validated Sterility: Fully validated by bacterial challenge testing, the PROPOR HC guarantees sterile filtration, meeting the highest standards for product safety.
  • Broad Chemical Compatibility: The PES (Polyethersulfone) membrane construction offers excellent chemical resistance across a wide pH range, making it suitable for diverse applications.
  • Minimal Protein Binding: The low protein-binding PES membrane minimises product loss due to adsorption, ensuring optimal yield.
  • Integrity Testable: The filter allows integrity testing for sterility assurance, providing peace of mind during critical processes.
  • Single-Use Convenience: Available in single-use capsules, the PROPOR HC simplifies filter changeout and reduces validation requirements.
  • Gamma Irradiation and Autoclave Compatibility: The capsules can be gamma-irradiated or autoclaved for terminal sterilisation, ensuring aseptic processing.
