Vacuum?Filters Unites Best Choice for Clarification, Filtration and Sterilization in Your Biological Laboratories.
What Are Vacuum Filters?
Disposable Vacuum Filters Unites are designed for large volume filtration or sterilization of buffers, culture media, and other aqueous solutions. Itnbsp;work similarly to other types of vacuum filtration systems, relying mainly on vacuum negative pressure as a driving force to achieve solid-liquid separation. Heres how it works in detail:
Basic principle
By generating negative pressure, the vacuum filter bottle forms a pressure difference on the upper and lower surfaces of the filter cake, which is used to drive the liquid in the suspension through the filter medium (such as the filter cloth) to be pumped away, and the solid particles are trapped in the filter medium, so as to achieve the effective separation of liquid and solid.

Membrane Solutions Vacufil? Disposable Vacuum Filters Unites are a standalone filtration unit that combines a graduated reservoir. They are ideal for when a self-contained, pre-sterilized, disposable filtration unit is required.
Available with PES, Cellulose Acetatenbsp ;and PVDF membranes in various pore sizes for the sterile filtration of biological and aqueous fluids, tissue culture media and buffers.
The range is available in filtration unit, bottle top filter, or receiver bottle.

How to Choose Suitable Membranes?
Polyethersulfone (PES)?membrane?is used for?filtering culture media, as they exhibit fast flow rates and low protein binding.
Hydrophilic (PVDF)?membrane?is?very low protein binding and used for filtering protein solutions.
Cellulose acetate (CA)?membrane?is?ideal for filtering biological samples and culture media containing sera, as they exhibit very low protein and macromolecule binding.
Nylon (NY)?membrane?is?hydrophilic with broad chemical compatibility and are recommended for applications requiring very low extractables. It?can exhibit high protein and small molecule binding and is?not recommended for biological samples, but can be used for filtering protein-free media.

Conclusion
In summary, the working principle of vacuum filter?bottle is to form a pressure difference on the upper and lower surfaces of the filter cake through vacuum negative pressure, so as to promote the liquid in the suspension through the filter medium to achieve solid-liquid separation. This process includes liquid extraction, solids retention, cake formation, washing, dehydration and cake removal and is suitable for a variety of suspension filtration needs.
