ReadyToProcess ULTA normal flow filter capsules are single-use filters designed for laboratory through process scale applications. Cytiva provides filtration solutions and support for integrated bioprocessing applications at every step and every scale of the drug development, validation and manufacturing process.

Capto L is an affinity chromatography medium for the process-scale capture of a broad range of antibodies and antibody fragments.

Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF is a protein hydrolysate derived from cottonseed by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymes used for digestion are from non-animal sources. Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF has been ultrafiltered to reduce endotoxin.

Cellulosic, polypropylene or glass fiber depth filter media clarify or retain agglomerates and macromolecules. Protect downstream membrane filters and columns. Multiple inlet / outlet connections including sanitary tri-clamp, hose barbs, quick connectors, elbows or NPT. Disc for small volume, up to full sized Cartridges and capsules for process scale operations.

ZenPure designs, mold-manufactures and injects its own filter components. Engineering, product development and filter production under ISO standards facilitate full quality audit and traceability to meet the highest industry standards. Validation support documentation is available for appropriate products.

CHT is a leading purification medium of biomolecules in today’s demanding downstream process industry. Its mixed-mode support offers unique selectivities and often separates biomolecules that appear homogeneous with other chromatographic methods. The diverse binding capabilities of CHT for host cell proteins, leached protein A, antibody dimers and aggregates, nucleic acids, and viruses allow its use at any stage from initial capture to final polishing.

PureFlo hydrophobic polyethylene (PE) membrane filters, gamma compatible and ideal alternative to PVDF. Mold injected capsules with multiple inlet / outlet options including sanitary ‘T’ clamps, hose barbs, quick sanitary connectors, elbows and threads. Almost any combination of connecting inlet or outlet is possible with over 30 options. High gas flow at low differential pressure due to encapsulation geometries and polyethylene (PE) membrane. Full validation supporting documents are available. Ideal for tube sets and hook up to bioreactors, fermenters, biocontainer, biobags, wave bags or single use fermenters.

ZenPure’s in-company mold design and injection capabilities, filter production and quality assurance facilitate manufacturing audit and product traceability that meet the highest industry standards.

Bio-Beads SM-2 nonpolar polystyrene adsorbents are analytical grade, neutral macroporous polymeric beads for use in hydrophobic interaction chromatography.

Resin are designed specifically for intermediate purification steps that remove host-cell contaminants from partially purified targets using strong or weak hydrophobic interactions. Methacrylate-based beads for protein and nucleic acid purification using hydrophobic interactions are available for purifying compounds that have weak or strong hydrophobic regions.
