What is the difference between nominal-rated membranes and absolute-rated membranes?

Nominal-rated membranes and absolute-rated membranes differ in manufacturing processes and materials. PP and GF membranes are nominal-rated and are typically used for clarification to remove visible particles, but they cannot be subjected to integrity testing. PES, PVDF, PTFE, and nylon are mostly absolute-rated membranes. They are generally used for bioburden reduction or sterile filtration of liquid and gas, with established standards for integrity testing.

How to define sterilizing-grade filters?

Sterilizing-grade filters are required to produce a sterile filtrate in a standard microbial challenge test (1 × 10⁷ CFU/cm² of Brevundimonas diminuta) and to establish a clear correlation with a practicable non-destructive physical integrity test. Such filters are commonly described as having a nominal pore size of 0.2/0.22 µm.

Can a 0.45 µm filter achieve complete sterilization?

A 0.45 µm absolute-rated filter can remove larger bacteria and microorganisms, with a removal efficiency of greater than 90%, and therefore can only be classified as a bioburden-reducing (or bacteria-reducing) filter. To achieve complete bacterial removal, a 0.22 µm absolute-rated filter is recommended.

What materials and filter formats are available for Cobetter sterilizing-grade filters?

Cobetter offers sterilizing-grade filters made from PES, PVDF, PTFE, and other membranes. The available formats include syringe filters, capsule filters in various sizes, and cartridge filters.

What are the advantages and benefits of Cobetter sterilizing-grade filters?

1. Gradient pore structure design, which enhances filtration flux and dirt-holding capacity.
2. Low extractables and leachables, with low protein binding.
3. Available in single-layer or composite membrane configurations.
4. Comprehensive product range and multiple connection options, suitable for a wide variety of application scenarios.
