PCTE Membrane Disc, 12.0μm

The PCTE Membrane Disc, crafted from a thin, microporous polycarbonate film, is engineered for precision and reliability in various applications, particularly in blood assays and high-purity filtration solutions. Although polycarbonate is inherently hydrophobic, this membrane has been treated with a specialized wetting agent, allowing it to perform efficiently in hydrophilic applications.

Product Features:

• Absolute Pore Size and Density: Guarantees flow control for liquids, capturing 100% of cells larger than specified pore size.
• Smooth, Glass-like Surface: Ideal for particle identification under microscopy, providing a flat and reliable surface for analysis.
• Superior Strength: With a tensile strength of 207 bar (> 3000 psi), this membrane maintains its pore structure over time without stretching.
• Low Extractables: Promotes clean testing environments to ensure consistent and reliable test results.
• Negligible Absorption/Adsorption: Maximizes recovery of critical solutions, ensuring integrity of samples.
• Available in Hydrophilic or Hydrophobic Types: Versatile for a wide range of applications depending on fluid compatibility needs.

Applications:

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