General description

Housing/Overmold/ Assembly fittings/Single-use pump head: Polypropylene; Feed screen: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET); Polyester; Tubing: AdvantaFlex (Thermoplastic Elastomer), DOW Pharma 65; Feed screen: Polyethylene terephthalate (PET); Polyester; Pressure sensors: Polysulfone; Cable ties: Nylon
The Cellicon® Perfusion Filter is designed to meet your perfused seed train challenges. It is a flat sheet cell retention filter running in tangential flow filtration mode part of a single-use assembly. Perfusion operations deliver high-density cell cultures that alleviate the burden of processing large production bioreactor volumes while increasing manufacturing flexibility. Introducing perfusion to your seed train makes it possible to inoculate a higher quantity of cells for one or more production bioreactors, thus increasing process efficiency.

Application

Microfiltration
Seed Train Perfusion

Features and Benefits

High throughput. Predictable linear scale up from lab to manufacturing scale. Reliable and reproducible performance. Low crossflow and cell shear.
