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.
Spin-X LC units have a nylon membrane for applications such as HPLC sample preparation. Both have retailed volume of <5µl, and withstand relative centrifugal force (RFC) to 16,000xG.
