Description
Nalgene™ Rapid-Flow™ sterile disposable filtration devices are ready-to-use filter units designed for improved filtration efficiency in laboratory sample processing. Each unit combines a cellulose nitrate membrane with the exclusive Rapid-Flow construction to support high flow rates and high throughput while helping protect against contamination. The membrane has a pore size of 0,8 μm and a diameter of 75 mm; the grid colour for this configuration is white or without marking as specified. Both the upper chamber and the receiver provide a metric volume of 500 mL, giving a practical working capacity for medium-volume sterile filtration of media, buffers and aqueous solutions. As a disposable product, the device removes the need for membrane handling and post-use cleaning between runs. These filter units from manufacturer Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics are supplied as a case of 12 pieces for multi-user laboratories and batch workflows. The sterile single-use format supports sample integrity from setup through collection. Compact 75 mm membrane geometry together with the Rapid-Flow design promotes consistent performance in cell culture, microbiology and general analytical applications.

Questions about Nalgene™ Rapid-Flow™ Sterile Single Use Vacuum Filter Units
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Rapid-Flow™ Sterile Single Use Vacuum Filter Units is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in Bottle-top & vacuum filtration units, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
A bottle-top filter or a vacuum filtration unit sits on a bottle and pulls a liquid through a membrane under vacuum. Pore size and membrane are the same choice as a syringe filter, at a larger area. A sterile unit is a stated claim. The bottle neck has to match.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
