Lipipor TNA2E
The Pall Lipipor TNA2E Filter is a self-priming, air-eliminating filter with a 1.2 μm low protein binding Supor membrane and non-phthalate fluid pathway. It is indicated for the removal of inadvertent particulate debris, enlarged lipid droplets, fungal contaminants and entrained air that may be found in parenteral nutrition containing lipid.
Features
Patient Protection
Air – preventing embolism by position – independent air elimination
Particles – protecting the circulatory system against the undesirable effects of particulate contamination in peripheral and central venous infusions
Enlarged lipid droplets – significantly reducing the number of enlarged droplets (>5 μm) in admixtures
Microbes – reducing the risk from inadvertently contaminated infusates, particularly with fungi of clinical importance
Description
Benefits
Gravity prime and easy to use – the Pall Lipipor TNA2E filter minimizes nursing time and reduces set manipulation
Gravity flow – can be used in applications that do not need an infusion pump
Low protein binding -the Pall Lipipor TNA2E filter membrane has been demonstrated to have low protein binding
Slim smooth housing design – is comfortable for patients and easy to tape in place
Membrane compatibility – the Pall Lipipor TNA2E filter membrane does not adversely affect normal lipid size distribution
Filter Medium Low protein binding 1.2 µm polyethersulfone Supor® membrane
Retention of Candida albicans 100% removal of a total challenge of up to 104 for 24 hours
Tubing Extensions Non-phthalate PVC
Hold up Volume 12 mL
