Description

Mixed Cellulose Esters (MCE):

  • Composition: Mixed cellulose esters including cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate, also known as nitrocellulose.
  • High porosity provides superior flow rates.
  • High protein binding can be blocked by pretreatment or utilised in applications.
  • High purity: Triton-free
  • Autoclavable: Withstands autoclaving temperatures up to 130c without adversely affecting bubble point, flow rate or microbiological recovery
  • Rapid wetting time: <3 seconds to wet a 47mm diameter disc with aqueous 1% methylene blue



Applications:

  • Standard membranes for many laboratory applications including filter sterilising biological fluids, microbiology, contamination analysis and air monitoring.
  • Can be transparentised to view collected particles
  • Using compatible liquid (immersion oil, toluene) or
  • Select Opticlear membranes for the "hot block" acetone vapour method
  • Gridded filters available for quantifying microbial growth

Notes:

  • Bubble point is the minimum pressure required to force air through a membrane which has been preset with water.
  • Flow rate indicates initial flow rate at 10psi using KGS47 filter holder
  • Water: using water prefiltered to 0.1um pore size
  • Air: using 25c air at 10psi
  • Porosity refers to the precent open area.
