Cellulose Acetate (CA) Membrane Filters, 3.0µm, 142mm - SF15117
Reducing background noise in analytical assays begins with proper clarification, and the Cellulose Acetate (CA) Membrane Filters is engineered to remove interfering solids efficiently. To ensure analytical precision, the unit is constructed with a high-grade Cellulose Acetate (CA) membrane providing a consistent 3.0 cutoff that passes only your target analyte. Delivered as precision-cut discs, these membranes ensure compatibility with all standard filter holders and funnels. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.
