Overview

The EZ-Fit™ Filtration Unit is a disposable filtration device for bioburden testing of liquid samples including water, in-process samples, and final products.

Description

Optimal microbial recovery
The EZ-Fit™ Filtration Units have been designed to ensure optimal microbial recovery. The sterilized, disposable filtration devices for bioburden testing streamline your workflow, save time and give you highly reliable microbial enumeration results.The blue and pink drain support and the funnel-to-base assembly have been optimized so that the membrane remains perfectly flat after the sample filtration. When transferred to the culture medium, the whole filtration surface of the membrane is in perfect contact with the culture media. The shape of the funnel and the hydrophobic material minimize sample residue ensuring that the complete sample volume reaches the membrane surface. The innovative funnel assembly design prevents any leaks or sample by-pass of the membrane, meaning that the whole sample volume is filtered. The EZ-Fit™ Filtration Units conform to international standards (EP/USP) and comply with water testing regulations.

Reliable results – every time
The protective rim allows safe membrane transfer with forceps, reducing the risk of touching the membrane filtration area, and the vented lid can be left on the device during filtration.

Flexibility
The EZ-Fit™ Filtration Unit cover a wide range of applications, offering a selection of membranes and the flexibility to use liquid or solid culture media.

Save precious time
The pink drain design reduces filtration time on difficult to filter samples. New packaging solutions allow a reduction of set up time. For detailed information download the Data Sheet.

In summary, the new EZ-FitFiltration Units offer:

  • Drain support and optimized funnel-to-base assembly ensure optimal microbial recovery
  • Reduced risk of contaminating the membrane with forceps due to a protective rim
  • Visibility of the end of the filtration from any angle thanks to transparent funnel material
  • All around level volume indicators
  • Funnel handling with a single hand
  • Stackability, saving space in the work area
  • 250 ml funnels allow larger volume samples
