FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can I filter Isopropyl Alcohol with a Sterivex? | No. Isopropyl Alcohol has a low surface tension that causes it to wet out the hydrophobic vent on the Sterivex. Once the vent is wet out it passes liquid, and the IPA will leak out of the vent. Any low surface tension solution will do this. |
| Can I integrity test Sterivex? | Yes, Millipore offers a integrity tester for Millex and Sterivex catalogue # SLTEST000 |

Sterivex filter units work with syringes, peristaltic pumps or pressure vessels. They eliminate the risk of contamination associated with decanting or pipetting.
Sterivex units are designed to dispense into virtually any storage container. The devices are available with different outlet connections (see table).
Sterivex filter units can process volumes up to 1,000 mL or 2,000 mL, depending on the type of membrane used in the device. A choice of three different membranes is provided.
Filter-sterilize volumes up to 1,000 mL or 2,000 mL, using Sterivex™ pressure-driven filter units (capacity depends on the type of membrane used in the device). With three different membrane options and a variety of outlet connection options, Sterivex™ filters can fit virtually any workflow and dispense into nearly any storage container. Sterivex™ filters work with syringes, peristaltic pumps or pressure vessels and eliminate the risk of contamination associated with decanting or pipetting.
