General description
Stericup® and Steritop® sterile filtration devices use reliable, high-performance membranes for optimum sterile filtration of laboratory reagents, buffers, and media. These devices combine superior flow rates and throughput with low non-specific binding and a stable, no-tip design.
This Steritop® 500 mL bottle-top with 0.22 μm pore size polyethersulfone (PES) membrane filter unit can be used on bottles with 45 mm openings, designed for vacuum applications.
Application
- Tissue culture media +/- additives
- Buffers
- Biological solutions

Can Stericup® bottles be placed inside freezers for long-term storage of media?
1 answer-
You can successfully freeze and store many aqueous solutions (such as culture media) in Stericup® bottles at temperatures up to -20 °C (-4 °F). It is strongly recommended that you run a sample stability trial under your actual storage conditions prior to using Stericup® bottles for frozen storage.

What is the difference between classic Stericup® filters and Stericup® “Quick Release” filters?
1 answer-
Stericup® Quick Release, or “QR”, filters feature a connection between funnel filter and receiver bottle that requires only a quarter-turn release to facilitate funnel removal. These filters come fully engaged – there is no need to tighten before use. The receiver bottle cap has flanges on the top surface to improve grip, as well as a positive lock stop to ensure a leak-proof seal with the receiver bottle. Other improvements include a large, frosted writing surface on the receiver bottle and a lighter cap color to facilitate labelling, more prominent volume markings on the filtration funnel and receiver bottle, and a product label with a peel-off lot record strip on the bag for easy viewing in storage.
