Nylon Mesh Filters, 280 um, 142mm, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: ME17295

Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17295

Woven monofilament nylon construction provides a mechanically robust filtration surface with uniform openings that deliver consistent particle retention and accommodate both aqueous and organic solvent applications. Plain-weave monofilament construction creates uniform square openings that deliver consistent particle retention across the entire filtration surface area. In combination, precise mesh geometry promotes accurate particle classification and efficient sample preparation.

Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics

• Open area of 43% maximizes flow throughput while maintaining the mesh geometry needed for consistent particle retention at the rated opening size.
• Nylon monofilament plain weave delivers uniform square openings with tight dimensional tolerances for precise and reproducible particle classification.
• Plain-weave monofilament construction creates uniform square openings that deliver consistent particle retention across the entire filtration surface area.
• Naturally hydrophilic nylon monofilament wets on contact with aqueous solutions, eliminating pre-wetting requirements and reducing sample preparation time.
• Woven from 140 µm diameter nylon monofilament, the mesh structure provides reliable tensile strength without excessive reduction in open area.

For laboratories processing diverse sample types across aqueous and organic matrices, nylon mesh provides the chemical versatility and mechanical resilience to handle your daily workload. Surface capture at the mesh plane allows you to visually inspect retained particles and recover them by backwashing for further characterization or analysis. Make the decision for consistency and reliability, ensuring that your laboratory maintains its reputation for high-quality, error-free output.

• Tissue Processing - Disperses dissociated tissue through calibrated mesh to produce single-cell suspensions for biological assays.
• Particle Classification - Separates suspended particles by size through defined mesh openings for quantitative distribution analysis.
• Cascade Filtration - Provides coarse first-stage separation in multi-step filtration trains that progressively clarify sample solutions.
• Food Quality Control - Screens beverage and food samples to remove coarse matter before chemical and microbiological testing.
• Solution Clarification - Removes visible particulates from buffers, media, and reagent preparations before downstream laboratory use.
• Sample Prefiltration - Removes coarse particles and debris from samples before fine secondary filtration to extend downstream filter life.
