Mixed Cellulose Ester Filter
Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE)
Navigator MCE membrane filters are modified to offer researchers the lowest binding filters available. Due to the extremely low binding characteristics, these filters provide higher throughputs than competitive offerings and reduce filter changes when filtering proteinaceous solutions.
Because of their unique strength and extremely low binding characteristics, MCE membranes are ideal for protein and enzyme filtrations, tissue culture media sterilization, cold sterilization, biological fluid filtration and other filtration applications where maximum recovery of proteins is critical.

Precision Filtration with Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Membrane Filters
Achieve superior particle retention and clarity in critical laboratory applications with our Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Filter—high-performance membrane filters engineered for microbiological testing, air monitoring, environmental analysis, and sterile filtration of aqueous solutions. Known for their uniform pore structure, high flow rates, and excellent colony recovery, MCE filters are the gold standard for applications demanding accuracy and reproducibility.
Ideal for Microbiology and Analytical Workflows
Made from a blend of cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate, MCE Filters are naturally hydrophilic, require no pre-wetting, and offer low extractables—making them perfect for sensitive biological and analytical procedures. Available in pore sizes from 0.1 µm to 5.0 µm and diameters from 13 mm to 142 mm, they support a wide range of filtration needs, including water quality testing, air sampling, and HPLC sample prep.
- Uniform Pore Distribution – Ensures consistent particle retention and reliable quantitative analysis.
- High Colony Recovery & Contrast – Smooth, white surface enhances visibility for microbial enumeration and identification.
- Low Protein Binding – Preserves sample integrity in biological and pharmaceutical applications.
- Autoclavable at 121°C – Suitable for sterile filtration and aseptic workflows.
- Compatible with Aqueous Solutions – Not recommended for strong solvents or organic acids.
- ISO-Certified Production – Manufactured under cleanroom conditions for low endotoxin and particulate levels.
Trusted in Regulated and Research Environments
Widely used in clinical labs, pharmaceutical quality control, food safety testing, and environmental monitoring, MCE Filters meet USP, EP, and ASTM standards for membrane filtration. Their high wet strength and thermal stability ensure reliable performance under vacuum or pressure filtration setups.
Whether you’re performing membrane filtration for bacterial counts or clarifying biological buffers, our MCE filters deliver the precision, purity, and consistency your protocols require.
Filter with confidence—down to the last micrometer.
