Engineered for rapid sterile filtration of cell culture media and biological solutions, this bottle top filter features a 0.22μm PES membrane across four volume capacities. Polyethersulfone delivers the highest flow rates among hydrophilic membranes while maintaining very low protein binding — critical for preserving growth factor activity in sensitive media formulations. Each unit threads directly onto standard 45mm neck bottles with an integrated hose barb for vacuum line connection.
Bottle Top Filter Features and Benefits
- Membrane: PES (Polyethersulfone) — 0.22μm pore size, hydrophilic, very low protein binding
- Volumes: 150mL, 250mL, 500mL, and 1000mL — select from the options above
- Sterility: Gamma irradiated to SAL 10⁻⁶, individually wrapped, certified non-pyrogenic
- Fit: Standard 45mm bottle neck thread for universal glass and plastic bottle compatibility
- Connection: Integrated hose barb for vacuum line — no adapters or fittings required
- Identification: Membrane type and pore size printed on each unit for rapid selection

Frequently Asked Questions
What pore size bottle top filter should I use for sterilization?
A 0.22μm pore size is the industry standard for sterilization-grade filtration, effectively removing bacteria and microorganisms from liquid media. Use 0.45μm for general clarification and pre-filtration where sterility is not the primary objective. Globe Scientific PureFlow filters are available in both pore sizes across all volume capacities.
Are PES bottle top filters compatible with serum and protein media?
PES membranes provide very low protein binding, making them ideal for filtering serum-containing media without losing growth factors or cytokines. Compared to cellulose acetate alternatives, PES delivers faster flow rates and higher protein recovery. All four volumes use identical PES membrane chemistry.
What volumes are available for PureFlow bottle top filters?
Globe Scientific Diamond PureFlow 0.22μm bottle top filters are available in 150mL (VF-BT-PES-0150-22), 250mL (VF-BT-PES-0250-22), 500mL (VF-BT-PES-0500-22), and 1000mL (VF-BT-PES-1000-22). Each size ships in cases of 24 individually wrapped sterile units from LabSupplies.com at below retail pricing.
