PCTE Membrane Disc, 0.03µm

The PCTE Membrane Disc, crafted from a thin, microporous polycarbonate film, offers exceptional performance for blood assays and high-purity filtration applications. Designed with a wetting agent treatment, this membrane transforms from hydrophobic to hydrophilic, enhancing its usability across various settings.

Manufactured using a sophisticated two-stage production process, this membrane meets stringent quality standards, ensuring precision in pore size and density. This meticulous approach results in a translucent, microporous film that possesses a smooth, flat surface, ideal for capturing particles larger than the specified pore size, making it perfect for sample collection in blood tests as well as high-purity and general-purpose filtration processes.

Key Characteristics:

• Absolute Pore Size and Density: Offers effective flow control in liquid filtration, capturing 100% of cells larger than the designated pore size.
• Smooth, Thin, Glass-Like Surface: Enables precise particle identification through microscopy for enhanced analytical accuracy.
• Superior Strength: With a tensile strength of 207 bar (>3000 psi), the membrane maintains its pore size and density without stretching under pressure.
• Low Extractables: Ensures clean testing conditions, fostering reliability and consistency in experimental results.
• Negligible Absorption/Adsorption: Maximizes critical solution recovery, preventing loss of valuable samples.
• Available as Hydrophilic or Hydrophobic: Provides versatility, catering to a wide array of applications across different fields.

Applications:

• Flow control of reagents through assays.
• General filtration for various laboratory applications.
• Precise filtration and prefiltration processes.
• Efficient removal of red blood cells from plasma samples.
