Nephros (Nasdaq: NEPH) has launched the HydraGuard 20" UltraFilter, expanding its filtration technology portfolio. The new filter offers higher-volume capacity and flow rate while removing bacteria, viruses, and endotoxins. This product enables Nephros to enter new markets, particularly medical device manufacturing and pharmaceutical production, supporting compliance with water quality standards like ANSI/AAMI ST108.
The filter builds upon existing HydraGuard technology, previously to dialysis water purification, and provides exceptional retention of microbiological contaminants through size exclusion, offering more reliable performance compared to charged membranes.
