Cellulose Acetate (CA) membranes are a mixture of cellulose triacetate and diacetate creating a strong membrane in both lateral and longitudinal directions. Compared to MCE membrane, CA exhibits improved solvent resistance to low molecular weight alcohols, improved heat resistance up to 180ËšC, and may be repeatedly autoclaved or steam-sterilized without loss of integrity.
These membranes have a very low static charge which can minimize particle contamination of the membrane. This characteristic makes CA membrane idealy suited for OEM applications. Recovery of fastidious gram+ organisms may be enhanced by culturing on CA membrane. CA membranes are low protein binding and have low aqueous extractables(0.1%wt).
Typical applications include filtration of enzyme solutions to minimize protein loss, diagnostice cytology, receptor binding studies, and filtration of solutions containing alcohol.
Packaged as nonsterile bulk packs or sterile individually wrapped
