| Quality is critical in process industries where sterility is managed by monitoring for bacterial contamination of the components used to formulate the final products. A facility's water supply and process make-up water are constantly checked for microbial contamination. This testing often requires a large number of samples on a daily basis. Convenience, along with ease of use and confidence in the results, are critical here.
Environmental microbiologists ensure the safe distribution of water to the public or return of water to the environment, all while adhering to stringent government regulations. Using products that are certified for your technique or listed in your methods is the only way to ensure accurate, reliable results.

In both industrial and environmental microbiology, basic Membrane Filter (MF) Technique principles are used. The Membrane Filter (MF) Technique is accepted worldwide as an effective technique for analyzing aqueous solutions for microbial or particulate contamination. It has the distinct advantage of being able to concentrate larger sample volumes onto a membrane filter for analysis. Pall has been supplying MF Technique-certified products to laboratories worldwide for over 35 years.
Pall offers certified, sterile membranes key for use in the MF Technique. To improve efficiencies and eliminate the risks of cross contamination, we offer compact and efficient MicroFunnel™ filters with integral membrane for a preassembled and sterilized filter funnel that is ready to use. Pall's Ampoule media is premixed, premeasured, presterilized, and certified for use in the MF Technique. Our line of reusable hardware includes the 47 mm Magnetic Filter Funnel, allowing simple one-hand operation for vacuum manifolds.
Pall is also responding to industry demands for rapid microbiological testing with revolutionary products like the Pallchek™ Rapid Microbiology System, a rapid detection system that provides accurate, reproducible process control and bioburden analysis in just 24 hours.
With so many reliable products, it is easy to understand why microbiologists worldwide turn to Pall for the products they need to simplify their work and ensure accurate results.
