Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of steam-sterilizing liquid-filled medical devices, e.g., filtration and/or diffusion devices like ultrafilters and capillary dialyzers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a diffusion device, such as a blood oxygenator or gas exchanger, and a process for its production. The diffusion device is used in the removal of carbon dioxide from blood.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of sealing ports of medical devices, e.g., filtration and/or diffusion devices like ultrafilters and capillary dialyzers.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a process for testing the integrity of membranes in a filter module. Specifically, the process is applied to filters for extracorporeal blood treatment, in particular, filters comprising both filter membranes and particulate material.

Abstract: A filter apparatus, a method for the manufacture of the filter apparatus, the use of the filter apparatus in medical, chemical and/or biotechnological applications, and an apparatus for use in the manufacture of the filter apparatus. The filter apparatus has a cylindrical housing and a plurality of hollow fibers. The hollow fibers are combined to form a bundle in the housing and are embedded and held in each case at the end sides in a molding compound. The filtrate space is filled with particles of a chemically or physically active substance.

Abstract: A separation material includes a matrix that is bound to a saccharide, enabling the separation from a liquid of substances that selectively bind the saccharide. A method for preparing the separation material and a method for separating substances from a liquid that selectively bind a saccharide of the separation material are also described. A device employs the separation material for separating from a liquid substances that selectively bind to the saccharide of the separation material.

Abstract: A separation material includes a saccharide bound via a linker to a matrix for enabling the separation from a liquid of substances that selectively bind to saccharide moieties. A method for preparing the material, a method for separating from a liquid substances that selective bind to saccharides, and a device including the separation material are also disclosed.
