Microscale stirred-cell filtration for high-throughput evaluation of separation performance

Membrane filtration is a key separations technique in downstream bioprocessing applications: for a commercial bioprocess operation, 10–20 membrane-related steps are typically required. At the laboratory scale, the evaluation of membrane separation performance often involves a ‘stirred cell device’; however, this simple tool is poorly suited for conducting high-throughput studies of separation performance. Here, we designed a high-throughput …
