Sterlitech Mixed Cellulose Esters (MCE) Membrane Filters - A100A142C

Sterlitech Mixed Cellulose Esters (MCE) Membrane Filters utilize a mixture of cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate to deliver superior flow rates with high protein binding affinity. These membranes are ideal for particle monitoring, manufacturing diagnostic kits, and microbiology applications.

MCE membrane filters exhibit a precise and uniform pore structure, consistent thickness, and a smoother surface than pure nitrocellulose membranes. They are the most common membrane used for microbial analyses, due to excellent retention and recovery characteristics. These membranes are designed for quick and easy identification of surface-retained particles. They are offered with a variety of custom features; white discs to observe changes in color, black discs to improve contrast with microorganisms, and gridded options in both colors for accurate quantification of microbial growth.

Applications

  • Biological fluid sterilization and contamination testing
