Vacuum Filtration Stericup GP - PES, 0.22µm, funnel/receiver, STERILE/PK 12

The Stericup vacuum filtration system combines a Steritop filter unit with a receiver flask for processing and storing volumes from 150mL to 1000mL. They are ideal for sterilizing tissue culture media and buffers.

Features include:

• Millipore Express PLUS polyethersulfone (PES) membranes for fast flowing, low protein binding

• A filter rate of up to 25% faster than original Millipore Express membranes, and 3x faster than filter cups with cellulose acetate membranes

• Low binding hydrophilic membrane surface that prevents absorption of key growth factors and proteins. Stericup filter cups with Durapore PVDF membranes are available for applications that require ultra-low protein binding.

• The asymmetric pore structure of the Millipore Express PLUS membrane attains a higher throughput than other membranes. This is of advantage when filtering serum or other proteinaceous solutions.

• A no-tip, easy-grip receiver flask for improved stability and ease of handling. Capped flasks can be easily stacked for storage.

• Prefilters (sold separately) can be attached via a tab inside the funnel for use with heavily contaminated or hard to filter solutions.
