Novasip Ultipor VF capsule filters are disposable, Junior Style steamable assemblies designed to remove parvoviruses and other viruses from protein solutions.

The Novasip DV20 grade capsule filter utilizes an Ultipor VF-grade DV20 grade pleated membrane cartridge to remove parvoviruses and other viruses as small as 20 nm from protein solutions up to 5 – 10 liters.

The Novasip DV50 grade capsule filter incorporates an Ultipor VF DV50 grade Ultipleat membrane cartridge for removal of viruses 40 – 50 nm and larger. Novasip Ultipor VF capsule filters are supplied non-sterile and can also be Gamma-irradiated.*
