Description

General description

• 47 mm, Cellulose absorbent pads are perfect for culturing microorganisms on membranes.
• The absorbent pads protect the membrane during high pressure or fast flow conditions.
• Used to reinforce filters in Millipore′s monitors for contamination analysis.
• When saturated with a growth medium, they can also be used for culturing microorganisms on membranes.
• Comes in a pack of 100.

Application

Absorbent Pad is suitable for:

• air monitoring
• environmental monitoring
• aerosol contamination monitoring

It has been used in the development assay of Dictyostelium discoideum cells.

Features and Benefits

• Avoids membrane damage during high pressure or fast flow conditions
• Spacers enable you to combine multiple stages of filtration into a single process step, saving time
• The use of woven mesh spacers increases flow rate and throughput
• The spacers prevent the downstream screen filter from "blinding" the upstream filter pores
