MCE Syringe Filter, 0.45µm Pore, 13mm, Hydrophilic, Nonsterile, Luer-Lok, 100/Pk SKU: LE-IWT-ES10099

Featuring hydrophilic mixed cellulose ester membrane technology with 0.45µm pore size delivering exceptional particulate retention for aqueous and polar media filtrations. This 13mm diameter configuration provides reliable bacteria filtration while maximizing protein recovery in filtrate applications. Surfactant-treated MCE membranes ensure optimal wettability with water-based solutions, accelerating your sample processing workflows for chromatography, tissue culture, and biological sample preparation.

Key MCE Membrane Characteristics

Fast flow rates with high protein binding capacity deliver superior throughput for high-volume filtration protocols
Great thermal stability maintains membrane integrity during temperature-sensitive applications
Hydrophilic surface chemistry promotes rapid wetting and consistent flow characteristics with aqueous samples
Low inherent protein binding characteristics ensure maximum recovery of valuable biomolecules in filtrate
0.45µm nominal pore size provides effective bacteria removal while allowing smaller molecules to pass through

Key Construction Characteristics

Luer-Lok® and pressure fitting compatibility ensures secure connections and prevents sample loss during filtration
Ultrasonically bonded construction delivers reliable seal integrity without adhesive contamination
Concentric funnel-shaped barrel design increases sample volume capacity while decreasing back pressure
Filter media type clearly inscribed on barrel for easy identification and quality control verification
13mm diameter optimized for small-volume samples requiring precise filtration control

LE-IWT-ES10099 filters achieve excellent unit-to-unit and lot-to-lot reproducibility, ensuring consistent results across your analytical protocols. Outstanding chemical compatibility with aqueous and polar solvents maximizes your application flexibility when processing HPLC samples, biological fluids, and tissue culture media. Nonsterile format provides cost-effective filtration for routine laboratory applications where sterility is not required, delivering reliable performance for gas chromatography sample preparation, oil and alcohol particulate analysis, and bacteria filtration protocols demanding validated membrane technology.
