Robust and scalable mAb capture facilitated by a novel convecdiff membrane structure 

Low productivity, laborious cleaning requirements, and high costs hamper the performance of Protein A resins. Due to intrinsically high mass transfer rates, chromatographic membranes overcome these limitations, enabling residence times of seconds and full lifetime utilization (75–150 cycles) in 1–2 shifts.  


This webinar explores Sartobind® Rapid A, a novel chromatographic membrane platform based on a functionalized, self-structured hydrogel with high specific binding capacities. See how this revolutionary chromatography membrane can change the paradigm and break up downstream mAb bottlenecks.
