FiltraLinX® Application Scenarios 


  • Fermentation liquid separation-Cell/bacteria separation

  • Clarification of lysate-Removal of cell/bacterial fragments

  • Purification of proteins, vaccines, viruses and plasmids

  • Diafiltration for culture solution, purification for blood products 

  • Filtration for sterilization and virus removal


FiltraLinX® Application Case


Hollow Fiber Harvest Clarification Experiment on Polysaccharide Lysis 

Overview


A customer underwent lysis treatment after upstream harvesting and precipitation was generated. Considering the relatively longer processing time on using centrifugation and depth filtration for clarification and harvest, high requirements for the equipment of centrifugal harvest in a large scale harvest and high cost on processing and maintenance for the centrifugation equipment, the customer chose to use FiltraLinX® Benchtop Manual Hollow Fiber TFF System and TFFNOVA® Hollow Fiber for harvesting. Thus, this experiment was conducted to test the performance of the two products in this project.

From the experimental data, it can be analyzed that the FiltraLinX® Benchtop Manual Hollow Fiber TFF System from BioLink and the TFFNOVA® Hollow Fiber can be used for clarification of polysaccharide lysis. They are capable of harvesting the target product, and the polysaccharide lysis do not exhibit compatibility with the hollow fiber, and the yield meets customer's expectation.
