Fight Fouling With Easy To Clean Dursan

SilcoTek GmbH recently commissioned a study at the Research Center Weihenstephan for Brewing and Food Quality (BLQ ) of the Technical University of Munich.  The study quantified and compared the sticking rate/cleanability of smaller bio-molecules (proteins) on Dursan® and stainless steel tubes.

The study compared 3 samples for fouling/sticking after cleaning.  Average fouling results showed Dursan® reduced fouling/sticking by 76%.

Benefits of reducing bio-fouling and contamination?

• Reduce protein carryover in automated clinical test systems.
• Increase purity in food beer & wine production
• Reduce bio formation in food processing plants
• Improved test accuracy in protein analysis

Dursan can be applied to a variety of analytical components:

Interior and exterior of needle surfaces

• Small bore tubing (fused silica and glass)
• Glass vials
• Injectors
• Liners
• Containers
