Description

General description

MILLIFLEX OASIS^® 100 mL funnel is a ready-to-use, e-beam irradiated filtration unit that combines a funnel and a membrane filter in a single device offering a high-end solution for bioburden testing. The filtration unit is made of Styrene butadiene copolymer and the white plain membrane is made of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) with 0.45 μm pore size, and 49mm diameter. The MILLIFLEX OASIS^® membrane filter possesses almost twice the surface area of standard membranes enabling faster filtration and the funnel can be easily detached from the membrane filter without the use of any tools. The convex shape of the membrane filter after filtration demonstrates its integrity and prevents air bubbles from being trapped when placed on culture media.

The PVDF membrane filter has a broad chemical compatibility and low protein binding.

The MILLIFLEX^® PROTACT feature protects your samples from secondary contamination and makes the membrane-to-agar contact optimal delivering the most reliable results. The patented sealed membrane filter feature prevents the bypass phenomenon often found with other filtration systems ensures robust read-out.

The MILLIFLEX^® AZURE feature combines transparent funnel and all-around filling level indicators for an easy filling from any angle. The innovative filtration unit assembly design prevents any leaks or sample by-pass of the membrane to ensures the right sample volume is filtered.

The MILLIFLEX^® RACK&STACK feature also includes a locked lid for safe transportation and incubation.

Application

Milliflex Oasis^® 100 mL funnel with PVDF membrane is used in Bioburden testing. The PVDF filter has a broad chemical compatibility and is designed for samples containing anti-microbial agents. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic and brewing industry.
