Product Description
Sterilizing filtration is the most critical filtration process in any pharmaceutical or bio pharmaceutical operation. It may be performed in intermediate process steps to allow downstream processes to operate efficiently. Of course, it is done during formulation and filling to protect patients and your brand.
Sterilizing filters are made using membranes that perform according to established industry standards. For pharmaceuticals, filters that pass the ASTM International standard "ASTM F838-05 - Standard Test Method for Determining Bacterial Retention of Membrane Filters Utilized for Liquid Filtration" are designated as sterilizing filters.
