Gamma Stable Filters for Sterile Filtration of Air and Gas

CorevitalTM APB capsule filters incorporated with hydrophobic PVDF membrane are especially designed for the sterile filtration of air and gas. These filter capsules provide high air flows and 100 % removal of bacteria from air and gases, even in the presence of high humidity and moisture. CorevitalTM APB Gas filter capsules could be integrated within gamma-irradiatable or gamma-sterilized complex systems such as biorectors, or transfer sets where venting is required.
