Syringe Filters
Syrings filters with high burst strength for assured performance. Manufactured to ISO 9002 and GMP standard and 100% integrity tested.
Syringe filter sizes include 4, 15, 25, or 26mm diameter to handle volumes ranging from 0.5 to 100ml. The 50mm diameter PTFE syringe filter are ideal for protecting the vacuum line and pump. These disposable filter units are ideal for tissue culture media, buffer solution, stain solution, biological fluids and most other aqueous solutions and reagents that are used daily in the EM lab.
Pore size and membrane type are printed on every syringe and the filters are certified non-cytotoxic and non-pyrogenic. Sterile syringe filters are individually blister-wrapped in cases of 50. Non sterile syringe filters are packaged in cases of 50. The 50mm PTFE syringe filter is supplied in a case of 12.

Centrifugal Filter Devices - Costar Brand
Filter samples in microcentrifuges
Choice of cellulose or nylon membrane
For volume up to 500µl
Spin-X centrifuge tube filters utilize centrifugation for the filtering of small volumes. The unit consists of a polypropylene filter insert and a centrifuge tube. It handles volumes up to 500µl. they have a cellulose acetate membrane for aqueous solutions which is ideal for the removal of bacteria, particles, and cells from media. They are also effective for DNA removal from agarose or acrylamide gels.
