Hi all,
when something is pyrogen-free we can not consider it sterile. Am I right?
I am asking about a filter ( pore size 0.22) . It is mentioned in its certificate that the filter is depyrogen but not sterile.
As far as I know, Sterilization itself causes pyrogens .
So , I have three questions :
1- isn't the product from a 0.22 filter always sterile?
2- why is a filter depyrogen but not sterile?
3- How can we sterilize the depyrogen filter without making new pyrogens?
Many thanks,
Sara
