Abstract
A chromatography device having a housing having an inlet and an outlet. At least two layers of media disposed between the inlet and the outlet inside of the housing forming a media stack, with at least one of the layers comprising a functionalized layer. An optional spacer ring disposed between the two layers of media forming an air gap between them. A non-functionalized sealing layer disposed between the inlet and the outlet inside of the housing as the last layer of media in the media stack within the housing as a fluid passes from the inlet to the outlet through the media stack. A margin of the sealing layer in contact with the housing; the margin being compressed by the housing forming a compressive seal to prevent fluid from leaking to the outlet past the compressive seal.
