Better the start, better the workflow

Prepare cell suspensions more consistently and efficiently with the Thermo Scientific Nalgene Cell Strainer. Designed to support the early stages of cell preparation, this ready-to-use device combines a large filtration area, integrated 50 mL conical tube, and vacuum-assisted filtration to help reduce handling, improve visibility, and keep your workflow moving.

 

Whether you are preparing samples for cell culture, flow cytometry, cell sorting, tissue dissociation, or downstream molecular workflows, the Nalgene Cell Strainer helps remove unwanted debris and cell aggregates to support a more uniform target-cell suspension.


4x larger filtration area than conventional cell straining devices

Pre-assembled, supporting efficient and clean cell preperation

Optional vacuum support, where gravity needs a little acceleration

Supporting population-scale biobanking and proteomics research initiatives

Avoid buying multiple devices by opting for the pre-assembled Nalgene Cell Strainer, which features:

  1. Upper funnel
  2. Vacuum port
  3. Straining mesh
  4. 50 mL conical tube (includes cap)
  5. Tube holder

Designed to help you deliver more from every sample

Cell preparation can be time-sensitive, sample-limited, and prone to bottlenecks caused by clogging, debris, and repeated handling. The Nalgene Cell Strainer is designed to simplify this critical first step by helping users process cell suspensions more efficiently while supporting sample recovery and workflow consistency.

Key benefits

Ready-to-use design with integrated 50 mL conical tube

 

▪ Large filtration area enhances visibility and supports easier sample handling

▪ Vacuum compatibility for faster processing or challenging samples

▪ Scalable design compatible with Nalgene bottles for larger sample volumes

▪ Includes an individual tube holder for hands-free operation


Built for cell preparation workflows

 
Support uniform cell suspensions

By removing unwanted cells, debris, and aggregates, the device helps produce more consistent single-cell suspensions for downstream workflows.

 

Increase efficiency with faster processing

Optional vacuum support enables faster filtration of difficult samples, helping reduce bottlenecks in high-demand labs.

 

Reduce preparation time

The sterile, pre-assembled format helps eliminate extra assembly steps and supports cleaner, more convenient cell preparation.

 

Integrated conical tube and cap

The cell strainer is supplied as an integrated, ready-to-use unit with a 50 mL conical tube and cap, helping reduce handling and preparation time. This format supports a more streamlined workflow from filtration to centrifugation or downstream processing.
