We have developed a unique portfolio of consumables, each adapted to the different feed water quality requirements and to your various applications. To maintain your water system’s performance, it’s critical to replace your purification cartridges on time and with genuine ISO 9001-certified parts.
Assemble your Amicon Stirred Cell with the membrane of your choice. Ultrafiltration cut disc membranes are available in Ultracel® regenerated cellulose and Biomax® polyethersulvone (PES). The membranes are available in a range of different pore sizes & diameters.Ultracel regenerated cellulose membranes are recommended for concentrating or desalting dilute solutions. The hydrophilic, tight microstructure of Ultracel membranes assures the highest possible retention with the lowest possible adsorption of protein, DNA or other macromolecules.Biomax PES membranes are recommended for concentrating or desalting higher volumes of more concentrated samples such as serum, plasma, or conditioned tissue culture media.Microfiltration Durapore® PVDF cut discs are available 0.1 µm, 0.22 µm, and 0.45 µm pore sizes in both 63.5 mm and 75 mm diameters.Features & Benefits:•Disc diameters include: 25, 44.5, 47, 63.5, 76, 90 and 150 mm •Both Ultracel®, Durapore®, and Biomax® membranes are available in a wide range of pore sizes to meet your separation requirements •Compatible with Amicon® Stirred Cells Applications:Concentration, Buffer Exchange, Desalting

OverviewMillipore fibrous disc filters are available in a wide range of flow rates and throughput capacities. Our Glass Fiber filters are available with or without binder resins and can be sterilized by EO, gamma, or autoclave (121 °C at 1 bar).Glass Fiber Filters with Binder Resin:Millipore filters with binder resin have superior wet strength and are excellent for qualitative analysis and prefiltration, especially for heavily contaminated liquids. They are also widely used for clarification of aqueous solutions.Type AP15•Lowest dirt-holding capacity •Recommended prefilter for 0.2 to 0.6 µm filters Type AP20•Lower retention, higher dirt-holding capacity than AP15 filters •Recommended prefilter for 0.8 to 8.0 µm filters •Use upstream to protect type AP15 filters Type AP25•Added thickness yields same retention and greater dirt-holding capacity as AP20 •Recommended prefilter for 0.9 to 8 µm filters, especially for proteinaceous and heavily contaminated liquids •Use upstream to protect type AP15 filters Glass Fiber Filters without Binder Resin:The filters without binder resin retain their structural integrity without weight loss when heated up to 500 °C and can therefore be used in gravimetric analysis as well as for the filtration of hot gases.Type APFA•Retains fine particles with good efficiency, even at high flow rates •Recommended for monitoring wastewater and collecting suspended particles in gases (e.g., fumes from chimneys) •Use in biochemical applications (e.g., collection of cells and filtration of protein or nucleic acid precipitates) Type APFB•Higher mechanical strength when wet and greater loading capacity than type APFA filters •Use for liquid clarification, quantification of solids in suspensions of fine particles, and scintillation counting Type APFC•Greater retention, especially for fine particulate and microorganism removal than type APFA filters •Use for determining total suspended solids in drinking water •Use for filtering proteins or nucleic acid TCA precipitates and for collecting cells and microorganisms Type APFD•Thick filter with high flow and low retention •Use for clarifying suspensions containing particulates greater than 1.0 µm Type APFF•Use for filtering extremely fine precipitates such as protein, nucleic acids, or serum precipitates •Recommended for USEPA method 1311 for TCLP analysis Type AP40•Recommended for Standard Methods Total Suspended Solids 2540D •Recommended for USEPA method 1311 for TCLP analysis •Maintains structural integrity without weight loss when ignited to 550 °C (1022 °F) after sample filtration •Recommended for determining volatile suspended matter in wastewater and industrial effluents
