Reusable TFF devices and system for bioprocessing applications accelerates and simplifies processing of up to 1 L.
- High product recovery
- Minimal sample loss
- Greater efficiency
- Gentle processing
- Plug-and-play processing
- Scalable operation
- Recommended crossflow: 30 - 80 ml/min.
Versatile, self-contained capsules include all fittings and tubing to simplify installation into filtration setups and will work with any laboratory pump. Dual pressure gauges allow trans-membrane pressure (TMP) differential calculations.
Capsules feature glass-reinforced polypropylene housing, polypropylene screens, housing sealing with fittings, polyethylene membrane plate/filtrate channels, and an internal gasket made of ethylene propylene elastomer.
The Minimate™ TFF system, designed to work with the Minimate™ TFF capsule, is ideal for a variety of tangential flow filtration applications in biotechnology, molecular biology, protein chemistry, microbiology, and immunology. This ready-to-use system can concentrate and desalt proteins, peptides or nucleic acid sample volumes of up to 1 L or more and efficiently concentrate samples to as little as 5 ml. System also features gentle and efficient processing, easy cleaning and maintenance, compact design, and high concentration factors.
The optimized flow path design of the capsules coupled with low protein binding Omega™ (modified polyethersulfone) ultrafiltration membrane minimize non-specific binding. Capsules allow concentration and desalting processes to be performed on the same system with minimal user intervention. Several Minimate™ TFF capsules may be connected in parallel for increased membrane area.
Certifications: Each Minimate capsule is 100% integrity tested during manufacture to ensure reliable performance. For critical applications, the user can re-test the integrity after initial use. A Certificate of Quality is included with each capsule.
