Vyon porous plastics from Porvair Sciences are suitable for filtration applications in the healthcare and medical device market.

The tortuous path of Vyon porous plastics make the materials particularly effective at bacterial filtration and preventing microbial ingress. Manufactured to a variety of pore sizes and thickness, they can also be used to filter out a wide variety of different contaminating particles.

Employing a standard procedure, based upon ASTM F2101, Vyon plastic filters can be manufactured for OEM customers for incorporation into a medical device that offer greater than 99% Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE).

Porvair Sciences supplies pipette tip filters that are highly effective at inhibiting bacterial growth as well as being fully compliant with FDA, USP Class VI and European Pharmacopoeia statutory regulations.  For further information please visit https://www.vyonporousplastics.com/pipette-tip-filters/ or see the company at Compamed 2022 (Stand 8AF08).
