Product Description
Feature_Tec ZetaCARE depth filter boasts a stable, reliable, and powerful liquid clarification capability. The filter media is composed of wood cellulose, inorganic filter aids, and charged resins through a multi-step composite process.
The three-dimensional interwoven structure within the filter media effectively removes particles, cell debris, and other insoluble impurities, providing the first line of defense for efficient liquid clarification.
The uniformly distributed charges can effectively remove residual DNA and host cell proteins (HCP) and other soluble impurities, providing a second line of defense for efficient liquid clarification.
The dual overlapping protection ensures robust support for efficient liquid clarification, reducing the downstream purification load, helping customers shorten process times, lower production costs, and increase economic benefits.
