Caps for FlowTubes™

These cell strainers are ideal for detaching, isolating and straining cells from clusters and tissues. Their built-in compatibility with 12x75mm culture tubes and FACS tubes makes them especially useful for pre-sorting and preparing samples for Flourescence-activated Cell Sorting (FACS) . Typically a 35µm porous mesh is used to obtain a single-cell suspension and to prevent clogging in FACS instrumentation. However, a multitude of FACS users have cited applications requiring finer pore sizes for a higher level of anti-clog protection, while others require a larger pore size for pre-sorting and/or for more efficient rapid flow. • Pore sizes: 20µm, 35µm, 70µm, 100µm • Color coded by pore size • Sterile pouches of 25 strainer caps • E-Beam sterilized (SAL 10-6)
