Gelatin Membrane Filters for quantification and differentiation of airborne organisms
Gelatin membrane filters together with MD8 air samplers are used to collect aerobic microorganisms and viruses in the air (gelatin filter method). Gelatin membrane filters are individually packaged, pre-sterilized and ready-to-use units. Each filtration unit contains a gelatin membrane filter and a holder. They are available in different diameters and provide reliable and accurate results.

Filter benefits
- absolute retention rate
- the filter maintains the viability of the collected microorganisms for a relevant and meaningful sampling time
- gelatin filters are completely soluble in water, so microbes in one sample can be grown in/on different nutrient media - the sample is not affected by inhibitors
- the solubility of the gelatin filter is a prerequisite for virus sampling
