What are the applications of single-use tubing?

Typical applications:
1. Filling system (such as the connection between filling bags and filling needles);
2. Chromatography/ filtration system (such as tangential flow filtration, ultrafiltration);
3. Liquid transmission (culture medium, buffer, process liquid).

What are the differences between TPE tubing and silicone tubing?

1. Lifemeta™ STF TPE tubing is compatible with common-used aseptic tube welders and tube sealers, making it convenient and economical in repeatedly aseptic connections and disconnections applications, such as repeatedly feeding or sampling during the cell culture process.

2. STF tubing has lower gas permeability than silicone tubing, making it more suitable for easily oxidized liquid transmission.

How about the the chemical compatibility of Cobetter single-use tubings?

Cobetter STT, STF, ST5P and ST8H tubings have extensive chemical compatibility and can withstand a wide range of acids, alkalis, salts and organic solvents. For certain solvent resistance, please refer to the chemical compatibility section in the validation guidelines.

What is the sterilization method for Cobetter single-use tubing? And what is the shelf life?

1. Both silicone tubing and TPE tubing can be sterilized by 25-45 kGy gamma irradiation or by autoclaving at 121℃ for 30 minutes.

2. The shelf life of sterile single-use tubing is 2 years, and that of non-sterile tubing is 5 years.
