Application
5.2
Performing Diafiltration
Material:
— 5x sample volumes of exchange buffer
— Diafiltration tubing
— Exchange buffer vessel
Requirements
The sample volume is ≤ 500 mL.
WARNING
Risk of infection due to leakage resulting in contact with solutions!
During the process, check the system for leaks.
t
Observe the operating conditions (chapter "6.4 Operating Conditions",
t
page 22).
Procedure
Empty the permeate vessel.

Fill the exchange buffer vessel, e.g. laboratory bottle, with 5x sample vol-
t
umes of an appropriate exchange buffer.
Connect exchange buffer tubing to the exchange port on the feed reser-
t
voir and place the other end to the bottom of the exchange buffer vessel.
Start the peristaltic pump with a suitable flow rate (see chapter "6.4 Oper-
t
ating Conditions", page 22).
The diafiltration process starts.
