Biopharmaceutical Membrane Filtration Market

Introduction

The purification and microbial detection of pharmaceutical preparations as well as water and air in the pharmaceutical company strictly require the Membrane Filtration procedures as a standard operating procedure.

The purpose of these biopharmaceutical membrane filters is to remove non-viable and viable particles including microorganisms to clarify and sterilize the pharmaceutical solution. The particles will be sieved and entrapped on to the filter itself.

The pore size of the filter depends on the type of application and the extent of sterilization required. Membrane filters can be both hydrophobic and hydrophilic. The flow rate of the solution depends on the viscosity of the solution, particle load, resistance from filter and pressure.

The filters are made from cellulose, polyvinylidene difluoride nylon 66, polytetrafluoroethylene, polysulfone or polycarbonate. While selecting a membrane filter, the pharmacist must take into consideration the pore size, compatibility, fluid volume, particulate load and filter holder.
