Why staining is crucial in flow decay studies.

Filters of small areas are useful as models for larger operations such as batch-scale processing. Flat disc 47-mm microporous filters are often used for this purpose, especially in flow decline (throughput) studies aimed at sizing the effective filter area (EFA) required for large-scale production.

In the flow decline method of filter sizing, also known as the flow decay or total throughput method, the quantity of effluent produced using a given small filter area is extrapolated to determine the filter area needed to process the drug volume of an entire production batch. ...
