Spectrum® Hollow Fiber Membranes

Fully encapsulated in single-use modules, the membranes used in the hollow fiber filter modules from Repligen are constructed using four chemistries that are anisotropic in structure to deliver high flux rates, excellent separation, and low protein binding for higher product yields.

Membrane Types

With a broad choice of single-use module configurations, hollow filter membranes from Repligen use advanced hydrophilic membrane filtration chemistry to provide higher flux rates for faster processing times, excellent selectivity for separation applications, and low protein binding for higher product yields than other membrane chemistries.
