Event Overview:

What if a single filtration step left up to 300 mL of valuable product behind? For high-value biologics, even relatively small volumes can represent meaningful product loss, unnecessary waste, and potentially fewer doses reaching patients.

Join us to explore why every drop matters in sterile filtration and why product recovery deserves greater consideration in filter and process design. We’ll examine where product can remain after filtration, the factors that influence filter holdup and recovery, and strategies for minimizing product loss and recovering more valuable product.

Attendees will gain practical insights for evaluating product recovery alongside filtration performance and learn how thoughtful filter and process design can support greater process efficiency, reduced waste, and more sustainable bioprocessing.

Key Learning Objectives:

• Understand how filter holdup can contribute to product loss and impact overall yield.
• Identify key factors that influence product recovery.
• Evaluate opportunities to minimize product loss and improve recovery during sterile filtration.
• Understand how improved product recovery can contribute to process efficiency, waste reduction, and sustainability.

Who Should Attend:

• Process development scientists/engineers
• MSAT scientists/engineers
• Downstream processing scientists/engineers
• Process filtration specialists
• Fill-finish/drug product process engineers
