Description

Technical Field

[0002] In the field of biopharmaceutical purification, ultrafiltration membranes are often used for the separation and purification of proteins and enzymes, the treatment of cell culture media, and the purification and concentration of drugs.

[0003] The working principle of an ultrafiltration membrane pack: The pressure difference between the two sides of the membrane pack is used as the driving force, and the ultrafiltration membrane pack is used as the filtration medium. Under a certain pressure, when the raw liquid flows through the surface of the membrane pack, the surface of the ultrafiltration membrane pack is densely packed with many micropores. These micropores only allow water and small molecules to pass through and become permeate, while substances in the raw solution with a volume larger than the diameter of the micropores on the membrane surface are trapped on the liquid inlet side of the membrane pack and the solution is concentrated, thereby achieving the purification, separation, and concentration of the raw solution.

[0004] Existing ultrafiltration membrane packs are usually encapsulated with glue using tooling, which can easily contaminate the surface of the ultrafiltration membrane packs and is not convenient for installation and production automation.

[0005] Therefore, there is a particular need for an ultrafiltration membrane pack to address the aforementioned existing problems. Utility Model Content
