- Validation of filtration for the filtering elements (directly in specialized Pall laboratories)
The validation of the filtration for the filtering elements is achieved directly in the specialized Pall laboratories. The package of validation includes all the types of tests:
- compatibility;
- extractible;
- the evaluation of the effects of the absorption of the components in the filtering environment;
- the viability of germs;
- the bacteriological retention study;
- the generation of the parameters for testing the integrity of the filtering environment after moistening with the product solution.

- Calibration services for tester verification (integrity of sterilizing filtering medium) - PALL
The testers used for verifying the integrity of the filtering elements are very performing and extremely flexible
- Palltronic Flowstar FFS02


The tests of integrity may be easily performed even at distance, in the case of the verification of the integrity of the filtering vent cartridges, mounted on the tanks of preparation and storing.
- Palltronic Flowstar FFS04
All Pall testers allow the performance of the 3 types of tests of integrity used for testing the filtering hydrophilic and hydrophobic environments, respectively: Bubble Point, Forward Flow and Water Intrusion.
