MCE Syringe Filter 0.45μm 13mm & 30mm Sterile | Globe Scientific

Engineered for precision laboratory filtration, this Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) syringe filter delivers reliable 0.45μm particle retention across multiple diameter and sterility configurations. Hydrophilic membrane properties ensure consistent flow rates for particle analysis workflows. Constructed with polypropylene housing featuring female Luer-Lok inlet and male Luer slip outlet, each filter provides secure, leak-free connections during critical sample preparation.

MCE Syringe Filter 0.45μm — Features and Benefits

• Membrane: Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) — hydrophilic, 0.45μm pore size for effective particle removal at 0.45μm for clarification and pre-filtration
• Diameters: 13mm & 30mm — 13mm for small volumes under 10mL, 30mm for larger volumes up to 100mL
• Housing: Polypropylene (PP) with color-coded ring for rapid membrane identification
• Sterility: Sterile — gamma irradiated to SAL 10⁻⁶, individually wrapped, RNase/DNase free, non-pyrogenic
• Protein Binding: Medium — suitable for applications where protein recovery is not critical
• pH Range: 4-8 — compatible with Aqueous solutions, buffers, microbiological media

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 0.45μm MCE syringe filter used for?

A 0.45μm syringe filter with Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) membrane removes particles including fine particulates and debris from liquid samples. Hydrophilic wetting enables reliable filtration of aqueous and compatible solvent systems in laboratory workflows.

Should I choose 13mm or 30mm diameter?

Select 13mm for sample volumes under 10mL — the smaller diameter minimizes hold-up volume and dead volume loss. Choose 30mm for larger volumes up to 100mL where higher flow rates reduce filtration time. Both diameters use identical Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) membrane chemistry at 0.45μm pore size.
