A unique microbiology manifold that allows you to optimize testing without sacrificing cleanliness
Features 3-place filtration with independent vacuum control. Adapters are not included, but are ordered separately from PALL. (Adapters shown in the photo not included. These are elongated standard adapters).
Applications include: - Bioburden testing of filterable products is performed to determine the number of viable and reproducible microorganisms. By recovering organisms on and in a membrane filter, processing efficiency and the microbial quality of a sample can be evaluated to assure that the product is not harmful to the intended recipient. - Detecting spoilage microorganisms are critical for foods and beverages as they may be responsible for the deterioration of sensory qualities (visual, texture, and taste) and may potentially render the product harmful for consumption. Using membrane filtration, detection of these spoilage microorganisms keep contaminated items from reaching the market. - Monitoring for compliance to drinking water standards using Membrane Filtration Technique, determines if there are levels of pathogenic microorganisms in treated water or wastewater. These microorganisms include coliforms such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Legionella which are both classified as pathogens.
Accepts 25 or 47 mm filter funnels for processing multiple samples simultaneously. Designed for efficient analysis of microbiological or particulate contamination. Aluminum: Anodized aluminum body; chrome-plated brass valves; stainless steel drain plugs. Autoclavable. Dimensions (H x W x D) 3.9" x 17.2" x 6.0"
