Regenerated Cellulose Membrane
(0.45 µm (RC 55)) Electron Micrograph
(Magnification 1000x)

Whatman regenerated cellulose membranes are made of pure cellulose, without any wetting agents.

Features and benefits
  • Spontaneously wetting, very good wet strength
  • Extremely chemically resistant; suitable for aqueous and organic media
  • Hydrophilic
  • Mechanically stable
  • Sterilizable by all methods
  • Pore sizes between 0.2 µm and 1 µm
