Product Description
Get clean single-cell suspensions without the spills and stalled flow that slow down sample prep. SureStrain™ Premium Cell Strainers break up clusters and tissue fragments quickly, and a vented frame lets air escape as filtrate drains so liquid does not back up or overflow the tube.
This listing is for MTC Bio catalog number C7005, the SureStrain™ Premium Cell Strainer. Each strainer pairs a polypropylene frame with nylon mesh in eight color-coded pore sizes from 5 µm to 100 µm. Strainers sit on 50 mL tubes, drop into 15 mL tubes with the included reducing adapter, fit 6-well plates, and stand on four 1.5 mm feet for straining into flat dishes; they also interlock and stack. ReadyStrain™ kits pre-pair a 40, 70 or 100 µm strainer with a 50 mL tube and screw cap, and all items are sterile. Order it from LIGHT LABS alongside the other MTC Bio supplies your lab uses every day.
