19mm PCTE Membrane Disc, 0.5µm

The 19mm PCTE Membrane Disc, featuring an absolute pore size of 0.5µm, is engineered from high-quality, microporous polycarbonate film. This membrane is designed to excel in precision applications such as blood assays and both high-purity and general filtration processes. To enhance functionality, despite the inherent hydrophobic nature of polycarbonate, our membranes are treated with a wetting agent, rendering them hydrophilic for optimal liquid handling.

Key Features:

• Absolute Pore Size & Density: Engineered to control liquid flow effectively, it captures 100% of cells larger than the specified pore size.
• Smooth, Glass-like Surface: The thin, planar surface plays a crucial role in facilitating particle identification through microscopic examination.
• Exceptional Strength: With a tensile strength exceeding 207 bar (> 3000 psi), this membrane maintains its pore structure under pressure without stretching.
• Low Extractables: Guarantees that testing remains uncontaminated, promoting consistently reliable results.
• Negligible Absorption/Adsorption: Maximizes recovery rates of critical solutions, ensuring your findings are both accurate and repeatable.
• Available Configurations: Offered in both hydrophilic and hydrophobic variants, catering to a diverse range of applications.

Applications:

• Flow control of reagents during assays
• General filtration tasks
• Precise filtration and prefiltration processes
• Effective removal of red blood cells from plasma samples
