OEM GE PES (Polyethersulfone) Membranes

Product Information

PES
  • Hydrophilic, eliminates the need for wetting agents that can potentially interfere with analyses
  • Low extractables, ensures test results will not be compromised by wetting agents or other extractables
  • Low drug and protein binding, maximizes retention of critical drugs or proteins.
  • Wide range of pore sizes, pore range of 0.03 µm to 20.0 µm enables specific pore size selection for given application
  • Higher wick rates (lateral flow), with its high porosity, large pore sizes and smooth surfaces, lateral flow rates are unequaled
  • Superior burst strength, protects the integrity of the membrane under high pressure
  • Lot-to-lot consistency, quality checks, both down and across the membrane, ensure dependable results every time

Applications

  • Bacterial removal
  • Blood glucose testing
  • Drug filtration
  • I.V. filters
  • Lateral flow assays
  • Particulate removal
  • Serum cholesterol testing

Product Description

GE PES (Polyethersulfone) membrane is hydrophilic and constructed from pure polyethersulfone polymer membrane. It is designed to remove particulates during general filtration, and its low protein and drug binding characteristics make it ideally suited for use in life science applications.

Product Uniformity and High Sensitivity Maximize Performance
GE PES membrane is produced through a proprietary manufacturing process that employs high-quality standards throughout every step of production. This level of quality generates lot-to-lot consistency and product uniformity that results in reliable flow rates, particle retention and fluid purification.

This strong, microporous film membrane is constructed from a high-temperature polyethersulfone polymer that is acid and base resistant. Its strength and durability are advantageous during usage that involves aggressive handling or automated equipment. GE PES membrane is naturally hydrophilic without added wetting agents and has low extractables. It is available with large pore sizes and high capillary flow rates suitable for lateral flow devices.

Due to its inherent uniform porosity and controlled pore size, GE PES membrane efficiently removes particulates from solutions during general filtration. Additionally, its low protein and drug binding characteristics maximize recovery of critical drugs used in I.V. therapy, chemotherapy and open-heart surgery.

Flexibility for OEM Requirements

GE PES is available in rolls up to 78 cm (31 inches) wide, as well as sheets, cut discs, capsules, pleat packs and cartridges that can be customized to meet your application requirements. Because the GE PES is manufactured on-site in GE Osmonics facilities, all customization can be done easily and cost-effectively.
