Pargreen Process Technologies - Memtrex™ MP-S Pleated Filters with Polyethersulfone Membrane

Our commitment to validation is based upon the FDA Guidelines that we establish documented evidence of assurance that a specific process will consistently produce a product meeting its predetermined specification and quality attributes. Memtrex MP-S (MMPS) filters (Figure 1) are designed for final sterile filtration of biological and pharmaceutical products. The double-layer PES membrane provides low protein-binding, high throughput, broad chemical compatibility, and reliable bacteria retention for your critical filtration processes.

A detailed Validation Guide is available from GE Water & Process Technologies to document our rigorous testing for your records and reviews. The guide includes all the data necessary to assist the user with compliance to regulatory requirements.

The MMP-S filter is just one example of our strong commitment to the pharmaceutical industry. Our complete portfolio includes filters for every stage of processing, and we offer custom solutions for your unique applications. GE is your complete source for filters, crossflow membranes, housings and other filtration equipment.

Additional Information	N/A Memtrex MP-S filters may be autoclaved or in situ steam sterilized (up to 257ºF [125ºC], 30-minute cycles) for a maximum accumulated exposure of 10 hours. Alternately, the filters may be sanitized with compatible chemical agents. GE certifies that the material contained in its Memtrex MP-S pleated filters meet U.S. FDA requirements for food contact under the applicable regulations in 21 CFR. For further information, contact GE technical services. Memtrex MP-S filters meet the test criteria for USP class VI-121ºC Plastics. Aqueous extracts from Memtrex MP-S filters contain less that 0.25 EU/ml. The filters typically exhibit low levels of non-volatile residues. GE filter cartridges are designed and manufactured for resistance to a wide range of chemical solutions. Conditions will vary with each application and users should carefully verify chemical compatibility. Please contact your GE distributor for more information.
