General description

These Costar Spin-X centrifuge tube filters have a 0.22μm pore CA membrane-containing filter unit within a 500μL capacity polypropylene microcentrifuge tube.

  • Cellulose acetate (CA) membranes provide fast flow rates and low protein binding
  • Ideal for removing bacteria, particles, or cells from liquids, HPLC sample preparation and DNA removal from agarose or acrylamide gels.
  • Sterile and certified nonpyrogenic and DNase-/RNase-free.
  • Maximum Relative Centrifugal Force is 16,000x g.
These Costar® Spin-X® polypropylene microcentrifuge tube filters are available with Cellulose Acetate or Nylon membranes and 0.22 or 0.45 μm membrane pore sizes. The filter unit capacity is 500 μL.

  • Cellulose acetate (CA) membranes provide fast flow rates and low protein binding
  • Nylon (NY) membranes are naturally hydrophilic, surfactant-free and offer the lowest extractables
  • Both CA and NY filter by centrifugation for removing bacteria, particles, or cells from liquids, HPLC sample preparation and DNA removal from agarose or acrylamide gels
  • Use in any standard fixed-angle microcentrifuge rotor at RCF up to 16,000 × g
  • Sterile and certified nonpyrogenic and DNase-/RNase-free

Application

Ideal for removing bacteria, particles, or cells from liquids, HPLC sample preparation and DNA removal from agarose or acrylamide gels.
