Polycarbonate (PCTE) Membrane Filters, PVP-Free, Black, 5.0 Micron, 13mm

Sterlitech's black, PVP-free polycarbonate track-etched (PCTE) membrane filters are engineered for high-contrast optical and fluorescence microscopy. Pigmented with a proprietary black dye, these hydrophobic membranes significantly reduce autofluorescence, making them ideal for applications involving fluorescent markers. The dark background also enhances contrast during optical microscopy, aiding in the detection and enumeration of light-coloured particles, animal cells, and microorganisms.

These dyed PCTE membranes are widely used in research and diagnostics where accurate visualisation is essential, and are particularly useful in cell biology, microbiology, and water quality testing involving direct observation.

Key Features

  • Pigmented to reduce membrane autofluorescence
  • Hydrophobic PVP-free polycarbonate construction
  • Black background enhances contrast in optical microscopy
  • Ideal for fluorescence and light microscopy applications
  • Precision 5.0 µm pore size with smooth, flat surface

Optimised for Visual Clarity and Analytical Precision

Sterlitech offers both black and gray dyed PCTE membranes to support a wide range of imaging needs. The black variant is best suited for high-contrast optical microscopy of light-coloured specimens, while the gray option is more versatile—compatible with both fluorescence and conventional light microscopy. Both variants are produced through a consistent track-etch process that ensures uniform pore structure and reliable sample analysis.
