AKS 5<br />

Adsorption capacity<br />

The outstanding feature of the<br />

pharmacopeiaen-grade activated carbon<br />

used for depth filter modules is the very<br />

high adsorption capacity due to the special<br />

pore structure and the unusually high<br />

degree of activation of the carbon. This<br />

way the pharmacopeial requirements are<br />

not only met but even surpassed. ( The<br />

main criteria for pharmacopeian – grade<br />

activated carbon is the adsorption capacity<br />

of methylene blue).<br />

If suspended, colloidal or emulsified<br />

particles are removed prior to filtration, the<br />

adsorption capacity of the SUPRAdisc<br />

AKS 5 modules can be increased even<br />

further, this can be carried out with Pall<br />

prefilter systems prior to the adsorption<br />

process step.<br />

Extractables<br />

SUPRAdisc modules contain very low<br />

amounts of extractables such as aluminum,<br />

iron etc. For further details, please contact<br />

Pall.<br />

Endotoxin content<br />

AKS 5 contains < 0.02 EU/mL after 50 L/m 2<br />

flushing with WFI (AKS 5 doesn’t contain<br />

LAL inhibiting or enhancing substances)<br />

Advantages of the SUPRAdisc SD<br />

AKS5 Filter Modules<br />

Economy<br />

• Very economical due to high<br />

adsorption capacity<br />

• Low protein adsorption<br />

Quality<br />

• Very high purity (meets the USP/EUR<br />

requirements)<br />

• Very low content of extractables, e.g.<br />

aluminium irons and endotoxins<br />

• Very low pH-shift<br />
