Exosomes are small endosome derived lipid nanoparticles (50-120 nm) actively secreted by exocytosis by most living cells. Exosome release occurs either constitutively or upon induction, under both normal and pathological conditions, in a dynamic, regulated and functionally relevant manner. Both amount and molecular composition of released exosomes depend on the state of a parent cell. Exosomes have been isolated from diverse cell lines (hematopoietic cells, tumor lines, primary cultures, virus infected cells) as well as from biological fluids in particular blood (e.g. serum and plasma from cancer patients) and other body fluids (bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, pleural effusions, synovial fluid, urine, amniotic fluid, semen, saliva etc). Exosomes have pleiotropic physiological and pathological functions and an emerging role in diverse pathological conditions such as cancer, infectious and neurodegenerative diseases.

Tangential flow filtration (TFF) is emerging as one of the most efficient methods for the purification of extracellular vesicles for. TFF-EVs allows a rapid, reproducible and scalable purification of EVs, can be used on the lab bench for purifying small amount of samples (min 5ml) or connected with a mechanical system for purifying larger volumes.
TFF-Easy is a filter cartridge in hollow fibers made of polysulfone, which allows the concentration and the removal of small proteins and molecules from diluted matrices (cell conditioned media, urine, etc.), prior to the EV purification.
The small dimensions of the device allow to concentrate samples from 5 ml up to liters, surmounting the limit of the TFF technique which is usable for processing big volumes of fluids. The filter is additionally suitable for dialyzing EV preparations.
TFF-Easy can be easily washed and it is reusable multiple times.
Application Details:
Applications: Concentration of solutions containing EVs, exosomes or nanoparticles. Concentration of diluted matrices as cell media or urine prior to EV isolation. Removal of small molecules and unbound dyes from solution containing EVs/exosomes and nanoparticles. EV and exosomes dialysis. Concentration of EV suspensions post SEC isolation.
