The filter module case includes a casing, a cap, a first layer, and a second layer. The casing has a cylindrical shape. The cap has a cylindrical shape and defines a passage providing communication between the inside and the outside of the casing and receives an end portion of the casing and is bonded to the casing. The first layer is closer to an end and faces an outer peripheral surface of the casing and the inner wall surface of the cap. The second layer is closer to the center and faces the outer peripheral surface of the casing and the inner wall surface of the cap. The casing and the cap have organic solvent resistance. The first layer is formed of a first adhesive with organic solvent resistance. The second layer is formed of a second adhesive that has an affinity for hard-to-adhere materials and has a higher elasticity.

A hollow fiber membrane module 10 has a hollow fiber membrane bundle 11 and a housing case 15. The housing case 15 has first molding members 17 and a second molding member 18. At each first molding member, a tubular portion 19 and a nozzle portion 20 are integrally molded. The second molding member 18 has a tubular shape coaxially continuous from the tubular portion 19. Values obtained by dividing, by the wall thickness of the second molding member, the wall thicknesses of the housing case 15 at positions separated in the axial direction from a connecting position toward the first molding member 17 side by distances of 3 times and 5 times the wall thickness of the second molding member 18 are 1.0 to 1.3 and 1.0 to 1.5, respectively.

A hollow-fiber membrane module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a rectangular tubular outer casing with at least one sidewall being open, the outer casing having a plurality of open ports, and an inner casing configured such that a plurality of hollow-fiber membranes aligned in a longitudinal direction of the outer casing are placeable in the inner casing and configured to be insertable into the one sidewall.

A fixed tube of a nucleic acid extraction component and a nucleic acid extraction component. The nucleic acid extraction component includes a membrane column, which is fitted over the fixed tube. The fixed tube has a tube body, a tube opening, and a bottom. The tube body extends along a first direction. The end of the tube opening distal from the tube body has a protrusion which protrudes along a second direction, the first direction being vertical to the second direction. The bottom and the tube opening are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the tube body. The bottom has a shoulder and the shoulder of the bottom is connected to the membrane column.

A blood oxygenator includes a housing having a first end opposite a second end with a sidewall extending between the first end and the second end along a longitudinal axis. The housing defines an interior chamber having a liquid inlet at the first end and a liquid outlet at the second end. The oxygenator further includes a gas exchange assembly positioned within the interior chamber. The gas exchange assembly includes a retainer having an upper cap spaced apart from a lower cap by one or more spacers, and a gas exchange medium disposed between the upper cap and the lower cap. The gas exchange medium has a plurality of subunits stacked on top of each other, with each subunit having a plurality of layers of hollow fiber mats.

A device for determining contamination of a fluid by microorganisms has a housing with an internal volume, a cover closing the housing, a fluid inlet port, at least one filtration member, at least one nutrient layer including a composition of a microbiological culture medium, characterized in that the device includes a fluid outlet port, and in that the cover has an inner surface in the internal volume extending radially about the fluid inlet port up to a peripheral edge of the cover, said inner surface being inclined and converging towards the fluid inlet port, and in that the bottom of the housing has a surface extending radially about the fluid outlet port up to the side wall of the housing, said inner surface being inclined and converging towards the fluid outlet port.

Embodiments relate generally to a filter, for example, for attachment onto a gas detector device or a gas sensor, and attempt to improve the efficiency and service life of the filter. Embodiments typically comprise a dustproof membrane and a waterproof membrane. Some embodiments may also comprise a splash-proof cap and/or features to reduce negative pressure on the filters.

A self-contained filtration assembly with a self-contained filtration cassette therein. The cassette may be formed from one or more layers membranes and spacers (spacers, screens, or combinations thereof) all having the same general shape. The cassette may have a feed inlet path and a retentate outlet path extending through the layers of the cassette within the perimeter of the cassette, and a permeate outlet path between the cassette exterior and the interior of the cassette housing. The housing may have a generally circular or elliptical cross-section. A clamping assembly may hold together the components of the housing, and may be elongated in a direction along the flow path of the feedstream through the cassette. Various port-defining zones defined in the layers of the cassette may be sealed in a manner facilitating assembly of the cassette as well as isolation of the flow paths therein.

A membrane module comprising a cylindrical housing containing a plurality of flat sheet membranes oriented parallel with a longitudinal central axis of the housing, the edges of the one or more flat sheet membranes being embedded in a potting material.

A hollow fiber membrane module that increases a ratio of a membrane area contributing to membrane separation effect. On an inner wall surface of a case 100, at least one flow-straightening projection 130 and at least one flow-disturbing projection 140 are provided. The flow-straightening projection 130 projects toward an outer circumferential surface of a hollow fiber membrane bundle 300 to secure a gap between the inner wall surface of the case 100 and the hollow fiber membrane bundle 300 and extends from one end side toward the other end side of the case 100 and straightens a flow of fluid. The flow-disturbing projection 140 extends along a circumferential direction of the case 100 and disturbs the flow of the fluid.
