These incredibly robust, hydrophobic polycarbonate track etch (PCTE) membrane filters reduce extractables and have the lowest non-specific binding of any of our membranes, making them the perfect choice for chemotaxis, small-particle capture & analysis, and venting applications.
A two-step, quality-assured, patented manufacturing process used to create hydrophobic PCTE membranes yields reliable products with consistent pore homogeneity, predictable flow rates, and reliable particle retention levels.
The membranes are made from a single microporous polycarbonate sheet and have a thin translucent structure and glass-like surface feature that allow for easy microscopic examination and improved particle visualisation.
In addition, a hydrophilic, PVP-coated version of these membranes is offered for applications involving both aqueous and alcoholic samples.
Membranes made of hydrophobic polycarbonate (PCTE) for use in venting and chemotaxis. The only difference between regular PCTE filters and hydrophobic polycarbonate membrane filters is that the wetting agent is not used during manufacturing.
These filters are intended for use in applications involving venting and chemotaxis (the movement of cells in response to a chemical stimulus).
Chemotaxis is frequently employed in the investigation of immune response mechanisms. Rapid cell migration and shortened incubation times are made possible by the smooth surface and cylinder-shaped holes.
The Global Hydrophobic Polycarbonate Membranes market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
GVS PCTE Membrane is also offered as a hydrophobic membrane that works well for diagnostics, bioprocessing, and cellular tests.
This membrane has retained its inherent hydrophobicity because PVP has not been used to treat it. Here, hydrophobic PCTE filters are designated to help distinguish their performance from that of PVP-treated filters.
