Sterlitech’s comprehensive range of membrane, syringe, and capsule filters are exclusively selected to represent the industry’s highest quality manufacturing standards, product performance, and application support for laboratory-scale filtration.
Our filtration devices have been rigorously tested and optimized to reduce process times, increase analytical efficiency, and produce consistent, measurable results. We offer polymeric, glass fiber, and ceramic membranes--in all standard diameters and a range of pore sizes--as disc/sheet filters or housed within syringe and capsule devices for single-use applications. Sterile and non-sterile options are available, along with a multitude of other custom features to accommodate end-users' diverse needs.
Legionnaires’ Disease is a type of pneumonia that is caused by Legionella bacteria, which commonly grows in warm, stagnant water. Infection is acquired by inhalation of contaminated water from man-made water sources [1]. Due to the public health risks associated with Legionella, routine monitoring of water systems is an important component of water quality management programs. ISO 11731: 2017 provides standardized methods in the isolation and enumeration of Legionella in water [2].
Microbiological testing of water is not just a regulatory requirement – it is a direct safeguard for public health. When a membrane filter produces a false negative, a contaminated water source can be cleared as safe. The consequences extend far beyond the laboratory.
