- Extreme precision due to high pore density and narrow pore size
- Virtually transparent when wet; beneficial for light and electron microscopy
- When working with proteins, sample loss is minimized because of the extremely low binding
- Wide solvent compatibility reduces the need to stock an assortment of membranes
- Absence of manufacturing additives ensures minimal extractable that contribute to sample contamination
- Minimal auto fluorescence
- For accurate electron microscopy
- For anopore inorganic membranes
- Electron microscopy sample preparation requires a high-quality membrane to ensure that analytical results accurately reflect the sample state
- Anodisc™ membranes can also be used for liposome extrusion, HPLC mobile phase filtration and degassing, solvent cleaning, and gravimetric analysis
- Microorganisms are captured on the surface of the Anodisc™ membrane for subsequent analysis by light or electron microscopy
- When wet, the hydrophilic membrane is virtually transparent; retained particles do not need to be transferred to another surface before microscopic examination
