RC Membrane (RC60), 1.0um Pore Size, 47mm Circle (100 pcs) SKU: 10410012

Regenerated Cellulose (RC) Membrane Filters - 10410012

The Whatman 10410012 protects sensitive instrumentation and sample integrity by providing reliable particulate removal with minimal analyte adsorption or background interference. Additionally, verified 1.0 pore distribution across the Hydrophilic membrane surface guarantees batch-to-batch consistency in particle capture and analyte passage. By design, consistent surface properties across the full membrane area support uniform particle capture and reliable results in gravimetric, microscopic, and culture-based analytical workflows.

Material Specifications

• Economical bulk packaging supports laboratories with high consumable throughput where individual sterile wrapping is unnecessary.
• Regenerated Cellulose offers excellent chemical resistance to both aqueous and organic solvents.
• Mechanically stable and hydrophilic, often used for HPLC mobile phase degassing.
• A premium choice for broad chemical compatibility without requiring pre-wetting.
• Symmetric pore geometry provides predictable retention behavior across varying flow rates and pressure conditions.

Air monitoring and stack emissions sampling demand a filter medium that withstands the thermal and chemical conditions at your collection point — the material properties described above define the operating envelope for your application. For exactly this reason, low binding combined with high flow rate makes RC particularly effective when you need to filter dilute biological samples where both recovery and throughput matter to your results. Secure your research outcomes by partnering with a filtration solution that understands your need for speed, accuracy, and reproducibility.

• Refractive Index Prep - Ensures absolute optical clarity in filtrates, which is critical for accurate measurements in refractive index detectors.
• Ultraclean Solvent Prep - Filters HPLC mobile phases with high efficiency, ensuring no extractables interfere with sensitive UV detection downstream.
• Multiplex Bead Assays - Retains microspheres in flow-through assays while allowing the sample matrix to wash away without trapping the beads.
• Tissue Extract Clarification - Handles lipid-rich tissue extracts well, preventing the premature fouling often seen with hydrophobic membrane types.
• Dialysis Membrane Sheet - Used in custom dialyzers to facilitate buffer exchange and desalting of protein solutions via passive diffusion.
• Particle Sizing - Used in automated particle counters to provide a clean, non-shedding background for accurate contaminant sizing data.
