3M™ Emphaze AEX Hybrid Purifier is our single-use sterilisable and sanitisable. The all-synthetic purification media that contains a Q-functional anion exchange media and a fine particle and bioburden reduction membrane.
Remove impurities in biopharmaceutical process streams such as DNA, host cell proteins (HCP) and viruses with our all-synthetic, single use 3M™ Emphaze AEX Hybrid Purifier.
The composite purification media is comprised of three primary components: anion exchange nonwoven, microporous membrane, and membrane support. The anion exchange media is composed of four layers of polypropylene nonwoven with a covalently attached quaternary ammonium functional polymer.
The bioburden reduction membrane is a highly asymmetric polyamide membrane which has nine zones of decreasing pore size, spanning approximately a 20 X range, and terminating with a 0.2 μm rated qualifying layer. This is followed by a polypropylene nonwoven used as a support layer in the capsule.
