EASYstrainer™ - for Filtration of Cell Suspensions and Primary Cell Isolates
With EASYstrainer™ Greiner Bio-One introduces a novel product for fast and safe filtration of cell suspensions such as from tissue dissociation for flow cytometry. The cell strainer fits all standard
50 ml tubes and is available with filter mesh sizes of
40,
70 and
100 µm.
The innovative design of EASYstrainer™ cell sieves allows for secure aseptic handling with a reduced risk of contaminating the filtered cell suspension. In particular, a circumferential mantle surface and an additional handle can be used to grip the device firmly without getting in contact with the wetted filter material. Furthermore, the single blister pack allows for convenient and aseptic removal of the strainer.
A striking feature of EASYstrainer™ is its venting slot between tube and filter. This feature guarantees air leaving the tube readily while filtrated solution flows through the mesh. Thus, problems seen with other cell strainer brands such as liquid trapping between tube and filter as well as an overspill of cell suspension are things of the past.
