Polycarbonate membranes

Polycarbonate membranes are manufactured from a high-quality polycarbonate film using track-etched technology. The resulting membrane is a thin, translucent, microporous polycarbonate film with a smooth, flat surface.

Its pore structure is uniform and very precise with a fairly homogeneous pore size distribution.

The surface makes them ideal for the identification of microorganisms using microscopy or binocular lenses.

It provides perfect sample control, capturing 100% of microorganisms larger than the pore size of the membrane.

Maximum working temperature: 140 ºC.

Applications:

  • Particle analysis.
  • Epifluorescence microscopy.
  • Fluid clarification.
  • Cytology.
  • Biological assays, cell biology and cell cultures.
  • Removal of red blood cells from plasma.
  • Water microbiology (Legionella analysis in drinking water according to ISO 11731).
  • Environmental analysis (detection of AOX in water).
