General description

Test beverages and other liquids faster and easier with 55-Plus monitors from Millipore. These disposable and sterilized units are a convenient and easy system that enables you to optimize the analysis time for routine testing. After sample filtration, simply add 2 mL of liquid culture media and convert the base of the unit into a Petri dish for incubation.
The 55-Plus monitors are 0.8 μm, black membrane sterilized and disposable, ready-to-use filtration unit that eliminates the need for washing and autoclaving of filter funnels. Preparation and handling times are greatly reduced and there is no filter assembly before testing. These monitors have 50% more filtration area than conventional 47 mm filter holders and devices, resulting in faster flow rates. After sample filtration, simply add 2 mL of liquid culture media and convert the base of the unit into a Petri dish for incubation.

Application
