    Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Membrane Filters - 10406972

    Designed to deliver reproducibility and confidence across critical sample types, the Whatman 10406972 provides the filtration consistency that method validation demands. Supporting this capability, precision-manufactured Hydrophilic membrane with a verified 0.2 pore structure delivers consistent retention across the full operating range. Accordingly, consistent surface properties across the full membrane area support uniform particle capture and reliable results in gravimetric, microscopic, and culture-based analytical workflows.

    Material Specifications

    • Gamma-sterilized in sealed packaging, each unit is ready for immediate use in sterile workflows without additional preparation.
    • Low tare weight and complete solubility in organic solvents make MCE the standard membrane for gravimetric particulate analysis where method specifications demand minimal blank correction.
    • Known for excellent wetting properties and high flow rates in aqueous filtration.
    • Hydrophilic by nature, the MCE membrane structure supports high non-specific adsorption for effective organism capture.
    • Feature a uniform pore structure that provides consistent flow rates and high throughputs across the full range of standard pore size ratings.

    Scaling your method from development to routine production requires membrane consistency at every lot — the documented specifications of these membranes provide the reproducibility needed to validate the filtration step once. Addressing this directly, MCE's naturally hydrophilic surface allows immediate wetting upon contact with aqueous samples, eliminating the pre-conditioning step and letting you begin filtration as soon as the membrane is seated in your holder. Elevate the quality of your analytical data today by standardizing on a filtration product built to meet the exact specifications of your applications.
