Sartorius Sartopore 2 XLM Midicaps
Overview
The Sartopore 2 XLM Midicaps are high-performance sterilizing-grade filter units featuring a polyethersulfone (PES) membrane. Designed for the filtration of protein-containing solutions, these units utilize a heterogeneous double-layer membrane structure to optimize flow rates and total throughput.
Highlights
- Highly asymmetric membrane structure provides superior total throughput and protection of the final 0.2 µm layer.
- Optimized effective filtration area for rapid processing of biopharmaceutical fluids.
- Chemically resistant polyethersulfone construction compatible with a wide pH range (1–14).
- Low non-specific binding characteristics ideal for maximum protein yield.
