Sartorius Stedim Biotech announces the launch of its SARTOFLOW® Smart benchtop crossflow system for optimized ultra and diafiltration applications.
Ideal for use in many downstream processes, such as purification of vaccines, monoclonal antibodies and recombinant proteins, the system is suitable in laboratory environments for process development and clinical trials as well as for cGMP environments.
It comes equipped with a low shear 4-piston membrane pump that enables high product yields. In addition, the pump provides a wide range of flow rates allowing to choose between membrane surface areas from 50 cm² to as much as 0.14 m².
Its touchscreen offers instant access to all critical process parameters including display control and alarm functions. A logbook function stores alarms, set points and user logs.
Users can select predefined parameters to automatically run sequences for concentration, diafiltration, rinsing, filling, draining, flushing steps and tare functions. An optional peristaltic diafiltration pump is available to load product or buffer as a discrete process step. The system can also be upgraded in the case of changing process requirements.
