Abstract
A filtration assembly operable in connection with a crystal form screening workstation that provides for automated crystal form screening is disclosed. The assembly includes first and second valves, with each valve having an internal passage and first, second and third ports. A filter line is interposed between the first and second valves in fluid communication with the second port of the first valve and the second port of the second valve. A filter medium is in disposed in or at the end of the filter line and adapted to filter a drug-containing suspension flowing through the filter line. The filter medium is operable to filter fluids under both positive and negative pressure conditions.
