mdi Membrane Disc Filters
mdi offers a wide range of membrane disc filters for a variety
of microfiltration applications in the process industry. They
come in various sizes for filtration volumes of 1ml to several
hundred liters.
mdi membranes are validated for key performance
parameters such as retention efficiency, chemical
compatibility, extractables, heat resistance, and water flow
rates.
Applicationsmdi membranes are specially designed and developed for
applications such as sterilization of injectables, Water for
Injection (WFI) filtration, and wash water filtration in the
small volume parenterals (SVP) and large volume
parenteral (LVP) industry. Some of these are highlighted in
the table below.

mdi Microglassfiber Disc Filters
mdi microglassfiber filters, made of microfine glassfibers
only, are biologically and chemically inert, high dirt holding
filters.
Microglassfiber filters offer twin retention mechanisms of
seiving and adsorption making them highly retentive depth
filters.
Applicationsmdi microglassfiber disc filters are ideal pre-filters for
membrane disc filters. They are used for pre-filtration of a
wide variety of solvents and solutions to remove colloidal
particles so that membrane disc filters are protected,
resulting in higher throughputs at lower costs.

mdi Capsule Filters
Introductionmdi capsule filters are self contained, ready to use,
disposable filtration devices that contain a mini cartridge
filter element sealed inside a polypropylene housing. These
filters use well proven, high-performance filter media. The
special design assures highest packing density of the filter
media per unit volume resulting in a very compact capsule
offering long service life.
Featuresn Ready to use
n Compact design
n Large filtration area
n Long service life
n End connection to suit different needs
n 100% Integrity tested
n No elastomers or adhesives used in sealing
n Preflushed to minimize particulate release at installation
n Non-toxic materials of construction
Applicationmdi capsule filters are used for a wide range of process
applications such as end point filtration on filling machines
and filtration of small volumes of additives where cartridge
filters are un-economical and too cumbersome to use.

mdi Laboratory Filtration Products
mdi also offers a wide range of membrane filter products for QC/QA applications in the process industry. Filters for HPLC
mobile phase and sample preparation and for water microbiology are widely used and described below.
mdi Membrane Syringe Filters
mdi offers a variety of HPLC certified disposable syringe
filters incorporating membranes with absolute retention and
wide chemical compatibility.
These filters offer optimum
effective filtration area with
very low holdup volumes and
are available in 4mm, 13mm,
and 25mm diameters for
e f f e c t i v e r e m o v a l o f
particulate contamination
from HPLC and tablet
dissolution samples.
mdi Nylon-66 Membrane Disc Filters Type HNN
For detailed information on laboratory filtration products please ask for our Laboratory Filtration Product Guide or visit our website : www.mdimembrane.com
21
HNN membrane disc filters are hydrophilic, absolute
retention filters with wide chemical compatibility making
these ideal for HPLC mobile phase (aqueous buffers as
well as organic solvents)
filtration. HNN filters are
HPLC certified to ensure
that these do not add any
artifacts to the filtrate.
mdi Grid Marked Membrane Disc Filters
mdi Grid Marked membrane disc filters type GCN-S
are presterilized individually packed membrane
filters for water microbiology.
These membranes are
tested and validated for
recovery of microorganisms.
Chemical Compatibility
Table below shows the chemical compatibility of various process filtration products with some commonly used solvents. All oproducts were exposed to specified chemicals for 72 hours at 25 C. Chemical compatibility data on specific reagents is
available on request.
