Challenge Pore® PP High-Performance Clarification Capsules & Cartridges

Scientifically graded multi-layer structure using Polypropylene (PP) membranes of different pore sizes, featuring high retention efficiency, high throughput, and high dirt holding capacity.

    Superior Compatibility:
    ● Compatible with both Autoclave and Gamma irradiation;
    ● Highly compatible with a wide range of common solvents used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing.
    Pigment-Free Construction
    All plastic components, seals, and accessories are pigment-free, minimizing the risk of extractables and leachables (E&L) for a more hygienic process. Fully compliant with USP Class VI and ISO 10993 biocompatibility standards.
    100% Integrity Assurance
    Through rigorous process controls and stringent factory release testing, we ensure a 100% qualification rate for all outgoing products.
    Operating under ISO 9001 and compliant with GMP regulations; Meets stringent testing standards including:Bacterial Endotoxins: USP <85>,Biocompatibility: USP <87> & <88>,Extractables: USP <665>,Free from animal-derived components (TSE/BSE Free)
    Validated Excellence:
    Products are validated by world-leading agencies such as SGS and NF, ensuring every batch meets international validation standards.
    Challenge IM Capsule Filters are specifically designed for the biopharmaceutical industry. They are suitable for applications such as buffer filtration, intermediate product and drug substance filtration, as well as terminal filtration. This product has passed multiple tests conducted by the internationally recognized testing agency: SGS (SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd.).
