Foxx Lab Strainer 410-0001-OEM 50ml Conical Tube

Description

Product Overview

The Foxx 410-0001-OEM lab cell strainer is a precision‑engineered filtration device designed to fit standard 50 ml conical tubes. Constructed from high‑grade, chemically resistant polymer, the strainer provides a robust barrier that captures cells and debris while allowing clear filtrate to pass. An extended lip surrounds the filter opening, enabling users to manipulate the strainer with forceps without compromising sterility. Each unit undergoes gamma radiation sterilization, guaranteeing a microbe‑free product straight from the package. Packaged individually, the strainers remain contamination‑free until the moment of use, supporting reproducible results in demanding laboratory workflows.

Usage

The Foxx strainer excels in a variety of laboratory settings, from cell culture labs performing routine media changes to biopharma facilities conducting downstream processing. Its compatibility with 50 ml conical tubes makes it ideal for small‑scale filtrations, such as removing clumps before flow cytometry, preparing samples for microscopy, or clarifying supernatants prior to assay setup. Researchers handling delicate primary cells appreciate the extended lip, which permits aseptic transfer using sterile forceps, reducing the risk of cross‑contamination. The gamma‑sterilized surface also meets the stringent requirements of GMP environments, allowing seamless integration into quality‑control protocols.

Why Choose Us

Foxx Life Sciences has a reputation for delivering reliable, high‑quality laboratory consumables. Each strainer is manufactured under ISO‑9001 controlled conditions, ensuring dimensional consistency and filter integrity across every batch. The gamma sterilization process eliminates endotoxins and microbial contaminants without altering the polymer’s mechanical properties, providing a sterile product without the need for additional autoclaving. Individual packaging not only preserves sterility but also simplifies inventory management, as each unit can be counted and tracked independently. Moreover, the product’s proven performance is reflected in a perfect 5‑star rating from verified users, underscoring its dependability in real‑world applications.

FAQ

What pore size does the Foxx 410-0001-OEM strainer have?

The strainer features a 40 µm mesh, which is optimal for retaining most cell types while allowing clear fluid to pass.

Can the strainer be autoclaved after gamma sterilization?

Yes, the polymer material tolerates standard autoclave cycles (121 °C, 15 psi, 15 minutes) without deformation, though gamma sterilization is sufficient for most applications.

Is the strainer compatible with other tube sizes?

While engineered for 50 ml conical tubes, the extended lip can accommodate slightly larger tube diameters, but optimal fit and filtration efficiency are achieved with the specified size.

How should the strainer be stored before use?

Keep the individually sealed packages in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. The sealed packaging maintains sterility until the moment of opening.

What is the recommended disposal method?

After use, dispose of the strainer according to your institution’s biohazard waste protocols. The polymer is non‑hazardous once decontaminated.
