Product Details
- LifeASSURE 020SP Series spec sheet, 70-0201-8738-4, Rev 1110 & previously approved copy
- Charge-modified Nylon 6,6 membrane retains negatively-charged biological and particulate contaminants including endotoxins and nucleic acid fragments
- Robust cartridge construction is designed to withstand mechanical and thermal stress including SIP operations
- All product components comply with United States Pharmacopeia (USP) <88> Class VI Biological Reactivity Tests, in vivo
LifeASSURE™ 020SP series sterilizing grade filters cartridges are validated for absolute bacteria retention. In addition, the LifeASSURE 020SP series sterilizing grade filter cartridge contains a quaternary amine charge modified membrane to provide enhanced reduction of biological contaminants such as endotoxin and nucleic acid fragments.
Robust cartridge construction is designed to withstand mechanical and thermal stress including SIP operations
Our quaternary amine charge-modified, double-layer composite, Nylon 6,6 membrane provides enhanced particle retention, endotoxin reduction and reduces bioburden to the final sterilizing grade filter. The charged polymer is the same as that in our Zeta Plus ZB Series filter media (PDF, 2.5 Mb) making for a component system for combined contaminate removal.
Our robust construction of the LifeASSURE 020SP series filter cartridges are tested to withstand mechanical and thermal stresses associated with those from multiple Sterilization-In-Place (SIP) operations.
A Validation Guide is available for ease of compliance with regulatory requirements. All product components comply with United States Pharmacopeia (USP) <88> Class VI Biological Reactivity Tests, in vivo.
