Asahi Kasei Planova Europe

Company Profile:

Asahi Kasei pioneered the development of the Planova filter as the first filter specifically designed for virus removal. Asahi Kasei Medical, a business unit of Asahi Kasei Group, seeks to deliver the very best in not only the products we manufacture, but the technical support we provide, and thus we have created a global technical support network specifically for Planova filter users.

Key Products:

The Planova filter family offers unparalleled performance in clearing viruses ranging from HIV to parvovirus B19 while permitting high protein transmission. Ongoing research suggests that the Planova filter can remove prions associated with transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.  Our new membrane, the Planova BioEX filter permits high flow rate filtration for high concentration protein. This makes it highly suitable for large volume production of monoclonal antibodies.
