      Featuring hydrophilic mixed cellulose ester membrane technology delivering sterile microbiological analysis for potable, waste, process, and natural water applications. This 0.45µm gridded configuration provides precise bacterial retention while maintaining superior handling characteristics and reduced fragmentation compared to traditional cellulose nitrate membranes. EPA-certified performance meets Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater1 and U.S. EPA Microbiological Methods for Monitoring the Environment2 requirements for validated membrane filter technique protocols. Key MCE Membrane Characteristics
      • Sterile mixed cellulose ester construction combining cellulose acetate and cellulose nitrate for biologically inert microorganism retention
      • Hydrophilic surface chemistry promotes rapid wetting and optimal flow characteristics for aqueous microbiological applications
      • Gridded reference pattern facilitates accurate colony counting and enumeration during microscopic examination procedures
      • Enhanced mechanical integrity reduces cracking and fracturing during handling, mounting, and post-filtration processing
      • Pure membrane surface with no additional smoothing treatments or surfactants ensures contamination-free microbiological results
      Key Construction and Compliance Characteristics
      • 47mm diameter accommodates standard membrane filter holders and sampling equipment configurations for water testing protocols
      • 0.45µm pore structure achieves complete bacterial retention as specified in Standard Methods membrane filter technique procedures1
      • Smoother, more uniform surface morphology than pure nitrocellulose membranes delivers consistent colony development and morphology
      • NIOSH-compliant performance for airborne metals and asbestos monitoring applications3 expands analytical versatility
      • Sterile packaging maintains sample integrity and eliminates pre-filtration sterilization requirements for immediate use
      LE-045SG-047 filters achieve exceptional microbiological retention efficiency while accommodating high-volume water sampling protocols, accelerating your analytical throughput for drinking water, environmental monitoring, and industrial process water applications. Outstanding chemical compatibility with standard microbiological media and staining procedures maximizes your analytical flexibility when conducting coliform enumeration, bacterial identification, and membrane filter technique applications. EPA compliance2 transforms these gridded membranes into validated reference-grade media, providing performance assurance for your critical water quality monitoring and microbiological analysis applications demanding both sterility assurance and accurate bacterial enumeration capabilities.
