Maintaining competitiveness in today’s dairy processing industries depends upon a combination of factors including; the degree of automation, efficiency of production, hygienic design, effective ...
WILLIAMSBURG, Va.-For years, when biologist Laurie Sanderson peered into the mouths of filter-feeding fish, what she saw was a puzzle. How did such fish, from the foot-long menhaden to the 42-foot ...
The Sartocon Slice 50 crossflow filter device can be used for membrane screening and small-volume process development. The Sartocon Slice 50 crossflow filter device from Sartorius Stedim Biotech (SSB) ...
Tangential flow filtration (TFF) is a useful method for separating molecules or particles in liquid solution by size and enables both concentration and the ability to change buffer composition. 1 TFF ...
Studying the filter-feeding mechanism of mobula rays, engineers developed a new design for industrial cross-flow water filters. Research shows the filter-feeders strike a natural balance between ...
