Description

General description

The Millistak+^® depth filter media is offered in a scalable, disposable format providing greater flexibility because of its unique modular design. The Millistak+^® MB1HC23CL3 comes in a μPOD format featuring a 6.6 cm (H) x 8.9 cm (L) and a filtration area of 0.0023 m².

This B1HC media series delivers optimal performance through a gradient density matri, ideal for secondary clarification post tangential flow filtration, or depth filtration or centrifugation applications. Millistak+^® Pod filters are available in three distinct series of media grades in order to meet your specific needs - DE, CE and HC.

The Millistak+^® Pod system is ideal for a wide variety of primary and secondary clarification applications, including cell cultures, yeast and E. coli lysates post centrifuge, E. coli refolds, media, vaccines, plasma proteins and sera.

Easy to Use

With the compact, modular design of our Millistak+^® new Pod system, you can increase productivity and shorten cycle times.

Installation and setup of the Pod system is simple and straightforward. The unique design of the disposable adapters and disposable manifolds makes it easy to connect the Pod filters to rest of the unit operations in the process. The self-contained and disposable nature of the system protects operators from exposure to biohazards and eliminates maintenance as well as cleaning validation requirements.

Application

Post-centrifuge or settled permeate containing cellular particulate
