The Coated Membrane Filter (CMF) is cellulose acetate casted onto a non-woven polyester support. The resultant membrane is a low protein binding and low static charge matrix with enhanced chemical compatibility to low molecular weight alcohols.

CMF is recommended to be used as a non-fiber releasing, low protein binding pre-filter to a final membrane filter or as a clarifying filter.  Nominal pore size ratings are assigned based on >99.9% retention of latex particles with retention characteristics listed.

Membranes have a white plain surface and are offered non-sterile.  May be sterilized by autoclave, EtO, or dry heat.
