TFF-MV – tangential flow filtration-based device
Sample type
Diluted EV containing matrices (i.e. urine, conditioned cell media)
Quantity
1 concentrator
Product overview
TFF-MV is a filter cartridge in hollow fibers made of polysulfone. The filter is very useful for separating different EVs by size. Indeed, microvesicles bigger than 150 nm are retained inside the hollow fibers, while small EVs and molecules easily permeate the filter. Microvesicles can be recovered with a syringe in PBS buffer without additional purification steps.
