Application

The Microfil^® filtration system enables fast and accurate microbiological analysis of various liquid samples. The filtration system is suitable for the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries.

Features and Benefits

Use of 47 mm gridded pre-sterilized membranes Hydrophobic funnel surfaces for improved recovery Smooth interior funnel surfaces with no scratches Lip seal to prevent membrane by-pass Food-contact-polymer funnels, free from agents that may inhibit bacterial growth Pre-sterilized single use funnel can be directly used eliminating the use of Flaming Recyclable plastic funnel material that allows for greater environmental protection

General description

The Microfil^® filtration system is a simple and reliable solution for routine testing of raw materials, beverages, and water for microbiological contamination. The Microfil^® filtration system eliminates time-consuming steps, equipment setup, waste, and autoclaving and improves the productiveness of the lab. This cost-effective system uses pre-sterilized, ready-to-use funnels and membranes for filtration support. Ultra-thin 100 or 250 mL Microfil^® funnels eliminate the need for washing and sterilizing after each test, making equipment handling easy. A range of pre-sterilized 47 mm diameter gridded membranes is available with the Microfil^® funnels. Individually sealed membranes are placed in peel-back envelopes (S-Pak^® membranes). Due to the membrane support, filtration rates with the Microfil^® filtration system are faster when compared to traditional filtration equipment.
