Automation and ease of use enables operators to perform the bulk filtration and filling process for BDS applications without receiving specialized training. By using a closed flow path and sterile connections, additional environment monitoring is not required during the process, which can be performed in a standard clean-room environment without a need for a flow cabinet. Both the hardware and the consumables in the Filter & Dispense Bag System have been designed in tandem to minimize product loss and maximize yield.
