Millipore Introduces New Smaller Size of Innovative Millistak+® Pod Filter

7 Nov 2006

Millipore Corporation announced today that its revolutionary Millistak+ Pod family of disposable filters has been expanded to include a version capable of processing small bioreactor batches of 5–20 L. The newest Pod is available in two sizes with 0.027 m2 and 0.054 m2 of surface area.

New smaller size, same innovative solution.
Because it uses Millistak+ filter media, the same media found in the pilot and process scale Pods, the newest size of the Pod family offers linear scale-up and the ability to meet changing process needs. The Millistak+ Pod system is ideal for a wide variety of primary and secondary clarification applications.

Millipore will showcase the entire Pod filter family at IBC’s Bioprocess International conference, November 6-9 in San Francisco.

Go Mobius™. The Millistak+ Pod system is part of the Mobius integrated, disposable solution. No matter what your application step or scale, Mobius solutions can help you achieve greater process efficiency and productivity with the right combination of single-use products, application solutions, and expert validation support.
