Millipore Centrifuge Filter 4 ml 50 kDa Case of 8 Filters

The Millipore UFC805008 Centrifuge Filter is a laboratory device designed for the concentration and purification of biomolecules, utilizing centrifugal force to facilitate the filtration process. This particular filter has a sample capacity of 4 ml, making it suitable for processing moderate volumes of liquid samples. The "50 kDa" specification indicates a 50 kilodalton molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) of the filter membrane. This means that the membrane is designed to retain molecules with a molecular weight larger than 50 kDa, while allowing smaller molecules, such as salts, buffers, and smaller proteins, to pass through the filter.

Centrifuge filters like the Millipore UFC805008 are commonly used in molecular biology, biochemistry, and proteomics laboratories for applications such as concentrating proteins, purifying antibodies, and performing buffer exchange or desalting of biomolecules prior to downstream analysis.
