MCE Syringe Filter, 0.22um, 25mm, Double Luer-Lok, Sterile, 100/Pk SKU: SPEC18172

Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Syringe Filter - SPEC18172

SPEC18172 preserves biomolecule recovery through a 0.22 µm mixed cellulose ester membrane designed for naturally low protein binding. A hydrophilic structure ensures effective bacterial removal without the adsorption issues often found in synthetic membranes. Such performance is essential for sterilizing cell culture media, biological buffers, and protein solutions. Your laboratory gains operational efficiency from sterile-ready units featuring double Luer-Lok connections. Secure attachments facilitate reliable workflows across biotechnology research, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and microbiological testing.

Key Membrane Characteristics

• 0.22 µm mixed cellulose ester membrane delivers sterile-grade filtration with naturally low protein binding for biomolecule preservation
• 4.08 cm² filtration area provides efficient processing capacity for moderate sample volumes in sterilization applications
• 40.61 psi bubble point ensures membrane integrity while confirming effective bacterial retention during filtration operations
• Hydrophilic cellulosic structure enables immediate aqueous sample processing while minimizing protein adsorption for recovery
• Low extractables profile maintains solution purity during filtration of sensitive biological samples and pharmaceutical preparations

Key Construction Characteristics

• Durable polypropylene housing withstands operating pressures up to 72.5 psi with burst protection rated to 116 psi
• Double Luer-Lok inlet and outlet connections provide secure, leak-free attachment during critical sterilization operations
• Each filter arrives gamma-sterilized and individually packaged to maintain contamination-free conditions until use
• Sterile-ready configuration eliminates preparation steps for immediate use in aseptic processing applications

Your sterilization workflows gain efficiency from sterile-ready filters that eliminate preparation time while the mixed cellulose ester composition naturally resists protein adsorption. The 4.08 cm² filtration area processes moderate sample volumes appropriately while the 0.22 µm pore size provides effective bacterial removal. Double Luer-Lok connections maintain secure attachment during critical sterilization operations while the hydrophilic membrane chemistry supports diverse aqueous applications across pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and microbiological testing laboratories.
