General description

Stericup Quick Release-GP sterile vacuum filtration system combines a 500 mL Steritop bottle top filter unit, which uses a 0.22 µm pore size fast flow PES Express PLUS membrane, with a 500 mL receiver flask for sterilizing tissue culture media, protein & DNA.

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. What is the Corning alternative for the product CLS431097, which is a Corning® bottle-top vacuum filter system with specific features like a polyethersulfone membrane, pore size of 0.22 μm, membrane area of 33.2 cm2, and a filter capacity of 500 mL?

    1 answer
    1. The recommended alternative product is S2GPU05RE, Stericup Quick Release-GP Sterile Vacuum Filtration System from Millipore. This system includes a 500 mL Steritop bottle top filter unit utilizing a 0.22 µm pore size fast flow PES Express PLUS membrane, along with a 500 mL receiver flask for the sterilization of tissue culture media, protein, and DNA.

      Helpful?

  2. Can Stericup® bottles be placed inside freezers for long-term storage of media?

    1 answer
    1. 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.

      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

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

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

    1 answer
    1. Likely not, due to pore size/possible fouling/chemical compatibility. Refer to our guide, "Chemical compatibility of filter components": https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/product/documents/302/855/membrane-chemical-compatibility-ds2532en-ms.pdf

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

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

      Helpful?

  7. What is the difference between classic Stericup® filters and Stericup® “Quick Release” filters?

    1 answer
    1. 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.

  9. What is the expiration date of Stericup® and Steritop® filters?

    1 answer
    1. Typically 3 years from sterilization.
