Description

Filter Membrane 0.22um – Cellulose Nitrate Plane 47mm

Membrane Material:

• Cellulose nitrate (Cellulose ester)
  • Strong and durable, making it suitable for various laboratory applications.
  • Good chemical resistance to a wide range of solvents.
  • Moderately hydrophilic (water-loving), allowing for efficient filtration of aqueous solutions.

Membrane Specifications:

• Diameter: 47 mm
  • Standard size for filter holders and laboratory equipment.
• Pore size: 0.22 micrometers (µm)
  • Effective in trapping most bacteria and some viruses, ensuring sterility in many applications.
• Membrane form: Flat (plane)
  • Designed for placement in filter holders or for use in specific laboratory techniques.

Common Applications:

• Sterilization of liquids: By removing bacteria and other microorganisms larger than 0.22 microns, these filters are ideal for sterilizing water, buffers, and other biological solutions.
• Particle filtration: These filters can effectively remove particles such as dust, debris, and precipitates from liquids or gases, making them useful in sample preparation, clarification, and particle analysis.
• Air filtration: Cellulose nitrate filters can be used for air filtration to remove airborne particles and contaminants, ensuring sterile environments or protecting sensitive equipment.
• Sample preparation: In tasks like preparing samples for microscopy or chromatography, these filters can remove unwanted particles that might interfere with analysis.
