FAQ
What is an MCE syringe filter used for?
For aqueous filtration, microbiological testing, and routine sample clarification.
Is MCE hydrophilic?
Yes, it filters water-based samples directly without pre-wetting.
What pore size removes bacteria?
0.22 µm is standard for bacterial removal.
Can MCE be used for organic solvents?
No. Use PTFE filters for solvents.
Does MCE bind proteins?
Yes, moderate binding. For low binding use PES.
Are MCE filters single-use?
Yes, all syringe filters are disposable to avoid contamination.
