Innovative Bottle-Top Filters for Fast Vacuum Filtration of 100 mL to 5 L of Aqueous Solutions
- Filter faster.Supor® membrane provides high flow rates.
- No need to constantly refill upper fluid reservoir.
- Draws directly from the mixing reservoir.
- Eliminates the possibility of contamination from transfer steps.Filters directly into the desired container.
- Match filter to sample volume by choosing from two sizes.
- Available built-in prefilter increases throughput of particulate-laden solutions such as serum-containing media.
- Environmentally-friendly with minimal plastic waste.
- Patented small design accepts a variety of collection vessels and reduces storage space and waste.
- TA version available with tubing attached to each device for maximum convenience.
- Sterilization by gamma irradiation eliminates potential contamination by EtO residuals.
- Excellent device for cell culture media preparation
- PF version is useful for sterilization of hard-to-filter solutions
- Reduce mycopalsma with the 0.1 µm pore size

Basic Procudures
-
Connect the feed tubing to the port marked “INLET” on the VacuCap® device.Place the opposite end of the tubing in the unfiltered fluid to be drawn.
-
Connect the vacuum tubing to the port marked “VACUUM” on the VacuCap device.Refer to product insert for safety precautions.
-
While holding the VacuCap device securely onto the filtrate container, start the vacuum.The VacuCap device will seal securely to the container top and fluid will be drawn.
-
When filtration is complete, switch off the vacuum pump allowing the vacuum inside the receiving container to dissipate.Refer to the product insert for complete instructions.
