Parker domnick hunter provides both cost effective and efficient solutions for antifoam filtration. Antifoam has historically been sterilised using direct heat exchangers or steam injection which has a few disadvantages. Filtration has often been seen as non-viable due to the inherent difficulties in processing the fluid with respect to flowrate and lifetime to blockage. However, advances in membrane materials and pore morphology means that sterile filtration of antifoam is now an extremely attractive alternative that can guarantee sterility prior to the antifoam being dosed into the fermenter.
Propor SGPROPOR SG sterilising grade filters feature a patented, microbially retentive polyethersulphone membrane for fast, reliable and cost-effective sterile filtration of pharmaceutical fluids.
