Virtual – Introduction to cross filtration principles (vMEM1)
Course
About course
This 2-day (half day each) virtual course teaches students about membrane separation techniques used in bioprocessing with emphasis on tangential flow filtration (TFF) techniques using open and/or screen channel devices. It provides a general understanding of the scientific principles of tangential flow filtration used in upstream and downstream processing, optimization of operating parameters, and scale-up.
In a remote practical session, we will guide you through membrane preparation and a typical protein concentration/diafiltration process step using the ÄKTA flux™ tangential flow filtration system.
A basic understanding of tangential flow filtration theory and practice for upstream and downstream
processing is required for this course. Prior to attending this course, refresh your knowledge with these eLearnings:
- Understanding filtration for bioprocessing
- Filtration process development
