Pall MicroFunnel Filter Funnel w/ Metricel Black Membrane, 0.45um, 100mL, 47mm, Gridded - 50/Pk - 4805
Pall Corporation engineers proprietary membrane media for the membrane filter technique, purpose-built for microbial recovery and analytical clarification at the laboratory bench. Filter funnels seat a membrane disc across the base of the funnel so a full sample passes through in one contained step. Naturally hydrophilic PES accepts aqueous samples instantly while moving large sample volumes through quickly and keeps non-specific binding low for clean recovery. Concentrating each sample onto a single membrane underpins the membrane filter technique behind regulated water and beverage microbiology.
Key Characteristics
- High-flux polyethersulfone speeds filtration of large water and beverage samples
- Low extractables keep the filtrate clean for downstream analysis
- Supplied sterile for immediate aseptic microbiological testing
- Low protein binding preserves captured organisms and analytes for recovery
- Hydrophilic surface wets aqueous samples without pre-wetting
Dependable contamination monitoring protects the water and beverage lots you clear for release. Membrane filtration of your full sample volume concentrates the organisms you need to detect onto a single surface for the regulated microbial enumeration your methods require.
