WORKS^® system components

The Optimization Procedure provides a detailed protocol and data collection instructions to optimize SmartFlow^® TFF based separations. Systematic evaluations of membranes, process conditions, and sample make-up are featured.



The Case Study provides examples of how others have applied the principles of the Optimization Procedure to their specific application.



Where appropriate, SmartFlow^® has developed a simple protocol to address specific applications. Protocols provide exact instructions including membrane, pore size, filter area, and shear to achieve >90% yield in most cases. The protocol is not optimized for any individual product, but for classes of products like Mabs, phage, and whole cells. Designed to provide acceptable results for over 80% of those who try it, the protocol is an excellent way to jump start the improvement in your separation efficiency while you optimize the SmartFlow filter process.
