Highly Retentive, Certified Membrane for, Isolation and Enumeration of Organisms

• Ensures accurate analysis. Exclusive dot grid pattern neither inhibits nor enhances microbial growth

• Certified for use in the MF Technique as described in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater, current edition. Reduces filtration time

• Superior flow rates and high throughputs provide fast, easy filtration

• Ideal choice for microbiology labs requiring isolation and enumeration of organisms stunted in size from exposure to harsh conditions

• Easily isolate and enumerate Pseudomonas species, especially stressed organisms, found in process water and other fluid samples (like those analized in the electronics and pharmaceutical industries)
