Sartoclear® P MaxiCaps® are self-contained; single-use depth filter capsules for harvest and clarification applications in the range of 1 -100 L. The Sartoclear® P MaxiCaps® have a unique linear scalable design which makes them the ideal choice for scale up trials and small scale production processes. The filter sheets are made of a mixture of cellulosic fibres and filter-aids such as diatomaceous earth. The open 3-dimensional matrix has a high capacity for a wide range of particles. For this reason Sartoclear® P Depth filter Sheets are the best choice for the clarification of mammalian and microbial cell cultures. Other applications are the separation of cryo-precipitants and the removal of particles and lipids from serum and plasma applications.
