Merck Millipore introduces Millipore Express PHF hydrophilic sterilizing-grade filters for fast, efficient and economical buffer filtration

Faster flow rates than most sterilizing-grade filters, reducing footprint.

The filters are designed to offer high-flux performance and improved process economics. Superior process efficiency and economy result from broad chemical compatibility, high flow rates and extended throughput. Offering faster flow rates than most sterilizing-grade filters, Millipore Express filters allow users to accelerate their processes with the same size filter or reduce their process footprint, using a smaller filter.

Millipore Express PHF filters are compatible with a wide range of buffer chemistries including acids and sodium hydroxide across the entire pH range. The filters can withstand multiple steam-in-place or autoclave sterilization cycles.

"Improving process economics is always an imperative for our customers," said Andrew Bulpin, Vice President, Process Solutions, Merck Millipore. "With a fast flowing membrane design, Millipore Express PHF filters can be used to accelerate current processes or run the same process with a smaller filter footprint. And with a comprehensive range of sizes, these filters can support scale up and technology transfer with ease."
