General description

This item is a direct replacement for SCGPU02RE
Work with ease and filter with confidence with Stericup® and Steritop® Filtration Systems.

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 Stericup® 0.22 μm pore size polyethersulfone (PES) membrane filter unit combines a 250 mL bottle-top with a 250 mL receiver flask and cap for processing and storage.

Application

For Research Use Only
Stericup® and Steritop® systems are designed to reduce foaming and protein denaturation while maximizing flow and can be used for sterile vacuum filtration of aqueous solutions such as tissue culture media and biological fluids.
  • Tissue culture media +/- additives
  • Buffers
  • Biological solutions

Features and Benefits

  • The Quick Release filter funnel disconnects from the receiver bottle with just a quarter turn—reducing the likelihood of spillage and making it easier to manipulate on the bench or under the hood.
  • Bold product identification on the Steritop® filter funnel plainly displays membrane characteristics, including composition and pore size, for rapid, application-appropriate product selection.
  • Click seal cap is flanged and modified to enable a firm grip in wet or dry conditions—and a tactile stop confirms secure closure. Worry less about the possibility of spilling or contamination of sterilized contents.
  • Frosted, ample writing surface on the receiver bottle and lighter cap color facilitate clear labelling to improve legibility and reduce unreadable smears.
  • Click seal cap rests on the side to avoid risk of contamination.
  • Receiver bottles are stackable to save storage space.

Questions

1–10 of 16 Questions  

  1. Buongiorno. I filtri resistono ad inchiostri UV a base acrilica, all'acetone e all'alcool isopropilico?

    1 answer

    1. This product is composed of polyethersulfone and polystyrene materials. Hence, it is not recommended for use with acetone.
      Please see the chemical compatibility chart: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/technical-documents/technical-article/analytical-chemistry/filtration/chemical-compatibility-of-filter-components?utm_source=redirect&utm_medium=promotional&utm_campaign=FilterChemicalCompatibility

      However, the product's compatibility with acrylic-based UV inks and isopropyl alcohol has not been validated.
      Please see the user guide for more information:
      https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/product/documents/337/924/20199204w-ms.pdf

  2. What Bacterial Endotoxins Test is used?

    1 answer

    1. The test method used complies with USP 85 and EP 2.6.14 to ensure the absence of endotoxin in our products.

      Helpful?

  3. Can Stericup® and Steritop® filters be reused?

    1 answer

    1. All Stericup® and Steritop® filters were developed for single use, disposable processing.

  4. What tubing can be used with Stericup® and Steritop® vacuum filters?

    What tubing can be used with Stericup® and Steritop® vacuum filters?

    1 answer

    1. Stericup® and Steritop® filters are fitted with a 1/4” tube adapter. We recommend 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) ID silicone tubing to fit this tube adapter: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/product/mm/xx7100004

      Helpful?

  5. Are Stericup® and Steritop® filters GMP-certified?

    1 answer

    1. No, Stericup® and Steritop® devices are not GMP-approved.

      Helpful?

  6. The User Guide says “Use only glass or plastic bottles designed for vacuum applications”. Can you specify which bottles are compatible?

    1 answer

    1. Steritop® Quick Release bottle top units require a vacuum-rated receiver bottle with either a GL33 or GL45 mm closure thread as specified. Steritop® E bottle top units require a vacuum-rated receiver bottle with a GL45 mm closure thread. Bottles no larger than 2 L should be used.
      Glass bottles, GL33:
      • Wheaton media bottles (glass), 500 mL (Product Z364886)
      • Wheaton media bottles (glass), 1 L (Product Z364894)

  7. What is the maximum processing volume for Stericup® and Steritop® filters? Can I add more volume after initial filtration?

    1 answer

    1. All Stericup® and Steritop® filters were developed for single-use application. The maximum volume is dependent on the receiver bottle capacity. Stericup® filters come with a receiver bottle with a specified maximum volume. For Steritop® filters, the maximum recommended volume is 2 L with an appropriate-sized receiver bottle. Larger processing volumes can result in membrane fouling, increase chance of spillage and contamination, and lead to possible airlock*.
      *Note that devices with PES membranes can airlock if filtered to dryness. Some liquid must be left on top of the filter, then the system stopped, receiver changed or emptied, and more sample volume added before restart. This increases the chance of spillage.

  8. What is the maximum vacuum pressure for filtration?

    1 answer

    1. 700 mm Hg (27.5” Hg, 0.9 bar) differential vacuum at 25 °C (77 °F)

  9. Can we filter oil-type liquids with Stericup® filters?

    Can we filter oil-type liquids with Stericup® filters?
