TFF-Easy – tangential flow filtration-based device
Sample type:
EVs containing matrices (i.e. urine, conditioned cell media, plasma, serum, plant extracts)
Quantity:
1 concentrator
Product overview:
Tangential flow filtration (TFF) is emerging as one of the most efficient methods for the purification of extracellular vesicles. The TFF-EVs filter allows a rapid, reproducible and scalable purification of EVs. It can be used on the lab bench for purifying small volume of samples or connected with a mechanical system for purifying larger volumes. During the purification, the sample is simultaneously concentrated.
