Vivaflow® 200 is a ready-to-use, reusable laboratory crossflow cassette for concentrating samples up to 5 L. The membrane surface area per device is 200 cm². Each unit is supplied with all accessories required to operate the device with a laboratory pump and a size 16 pump head. To speed up concentration, two cassettes can be operated simultaneously.
Vivaflow® 200 is ideal for applications such as cell culture supernatant concentration, virus concentration, and water sample concentration, for example in fish farming facilities. This economical product offers an unmatched standard of ease of use, reliability, and flexibility compared with any laboratory filtration system on the market.
The modules’ thin-channel, reverse-flow recirculation path provides high crossflow rates with minimal pump speed requirements. A single 200 cm² module typically concentrates 1 L by a factor of 50 in less than 30 minutes. Alternatively, two Vivaflow® 200 modules can be used in parallel to concentrate 5 L in under 75 minutes.
Nearly complete recovery of the concentrate is achieved with a single final rinse. Vivaflow® 200 can be easily cleaned and reused several times. All accessories required for sample concentration using a single cassette are included in the package, except for the peristaltic pump with a size 16 pump head.
For fast and convenient buffer exchange, a closed 500 mL diafiltration reservoir can be added to the system.
