Contamination in food can fall into one of three categories: Physical, Chemical or Biological. Physical contaminants are solid particles that may come from the preparation process or food byproducts not intended to be consumed. 

June 23 marks National Hydration Day, a day to raise awareness about the importance of staying hydrated. Hydration supports energy, digestion, and overall well-being, but clean, safe water is essential for effective hydration. Water treatment plays a crucial role in ensuring the water we drink is free from contaminants. 

Sterlitech would like to notify our customers that the TriSep™ UB70 Flat Sheet Membranes have been discontinued and are unavailable indefinitely.

We’re pleased to introduce the new OEM Membrane section on Sterlitech.com. This section organizes key membrane products previously available on our site into a dedicated space, making it easier for OEM customers to navigate and find the solutions they need.  Improved visibility and streamlined navigation experience make it simpler than ever to find the right membrane filter components for your project. 

Regulatory food standards require food products and supplements to have nutrition labels to enable consumers to make informed decisions and take control of their overall health. Commonly located on the back of your favorite snacks and food products, the nutritional label provides nutritional content, including calories per serving, and breaking it down to total protein, total cholesterol, total fat, sodium and total carbohydrates.

Crossflow Filtration (CFF) and Tangential Flow Filtration (TFF) describe a highly efficient method used across membrane-based separation workflows. Although the terms may vary by industry, the process is the same: fluid flows tangentially across a membrane surface, allowing smaller molecules to pass through while larger particles are retained and swept along the surface. 

Earlier in May, Ammar Hafiz, Application Engineer for Membrane Process Development, attended the North American Membrane Society (NAMS) 2025 conference in Nashville—one of the leading global events in membrane science. Over three days, Ammar engaged with researchers, engineers, and industry leaders to explore emerging applications, share insights, and gather valuable feedback. Ammar was also involved in evaluating the posters competing for the Best Poster Award.

We’re excited to announce the expansion of our sterile syringe filter portfolio with a broader selection of trusted brand options—giving you more flexibility, performance, and compatibility for your filtration needs. Whether you're working in pharmaceutical labs, analytical chemistry, or environmental testing, we now offer a wider range of materials and formats to better suit your specific applications.

Sterlitech is proud to announce our recent feature on the nationally televised series World’s Greatest!, a program that spotlights exceptional organizations and companies making a meaningful impact across industries.

Cell culture workflows demand precision, flexibility, and sustainability. The cellQART® Half Pre-Loaded Well Plates meet these requirements by integrating gamma-sterilized, tissue-culture-treated PET membrane inserts into half of a standard 24-well plate-allowing researchers to load only the wells they need while preserving unused wells for future experiments.
