General description

EZ-Fit® Filtration funnel is used in bioburden testing of liquid samples and is designed for optimal recovery. Optimized funnel-to-base assembly and the drain support, ensure that the membrane remains flat after filtration of the sample. When transferred to a culture medium, the entire membrane is in contact with the culture media surface, there are no folds, so optimal microbial recovery is possible. The hydrophobic nature of the funnel material and its shape minimizes any sample residue collecting on the surface and thus the whole volume of the sample reaches the membrane. The EZ-Fit® pink units come with a wide range of membranes from 0.22 to 0.8 μm for maximum versatility to suit all applications. The new, patented drain design speeds up processing turbid and hard-to-filter matrices.

Application

The EZ-Fit®Filtration funnel is used in bioburden testing of liquid samples such as water,process samples, or final products.It is designed for optimizing the lab workflowand for providing rapid and reliable microbiological results.

Features and Benefits

  • The transparent funnel allows you to see when filtration is complete from any angle
  • Thanks to all-around filling level indicators there is no need to turn the funnel when placing it on the filtration support
  • The shape of the membrane base makes transferring the membrane with the forceps easy
  • The unit’s design allows the funnel to be removed with one hand
  • For larger volume samples, 250 mL funnels are the ideal choice
  • The units are stackable, saving space in the work area
