Greiner 100µm Lab Cell Strainer Sterile 50ml Tubes

Description

Product Overview

The Greiner 1182P92CS Lab Cell Strainer features a 100 µm stainless‑steel mesh engineered for consistent particle retention while allowing rapid fluid flow. Designed to fit all standard 50 ml centrifuge tubes, the strainer includes a molded handle and mantle surface that facilitate aseptic manipulation. A venting slot positioned opposite the mesh prevents liquid overspill and speeds filtration. Each unit is supplied sterile in a blister pack, ensuring contamination‑free performance straight from the box.

Usage

Ideal for cell culture, sample clarification, and downstream analytical workflows, this strainer excels in environments where sterility and speed are critical. Researchers handling delicate cell suspensions, microbiology labs processing culture media, and biotech facilities preparing extracts will benefit from the reliable mesh size and the ergonomic design that reduces handling errors.

FAQ

What types of samples can I filter with this strainer?

The 100 µm mesh is suitable for cell suspensions, culture media, and any liquid where particles larger than 100 µm must be removed without damaging delicate cells.

Is the strainer compatible with automated filtration systems?

Yes, the standard 50 ml tube fit allows integration with most laboratory automation platforms that accept standard tube dimensions.

How is sterility maintained until use?

Each strainer is gamma‑sterilized and sealed in an individual blister pack, protecting it from microbial contamination until the package is opened.

Can I reuse the strainer after cleaning?

While the strainer is designed for single‑use to guarantee sterility, it can be cleaned with appropriate laboratory detergents for non‑sterile applications, though reuse is not recommended for critical assays.

What does the color‑coded mesh indicate?

The color coding corresponds to mesh size, allowing quick visual identification when multiple mesh sizes are stocked in the lab.
