I have been researching for answers on both of these vaccume setups

Not seeing much said about stericap vaccume setups

Confused on which way to go I have ordered
DC12V Mini Vacuum Pump Negative Pressure Suction Pump 5L/min 120kpa

I figure best way to get answers is to start a thread on
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed
I have been trying to figure out which way to go about it
I'll appreciate any advice and ya time
There 2 setups


Stericup Quick Release-GP Sterile Vacuum Filtration System​

S2GPU05RE[203849-ALL].jpg

Stericup Quick Release-GP sterile vacuum filtration system combines a 500 mL Steritop bottle top filter unit, which uses a 0.22 µm pore size fast flow PES Express PLUS membrane, with a 500 mL receiver flask for sterilizing tissue culture media, protein & DNA.


SteriCap PLUS​

  • Product Code: SCGPCAPRE

Sterile, 5 L–10 L process volume, 0.22 µm pore size, polyethersulfone membrane, sterilized by gamma irradiationdeepweb.jpg

Which way should I go about it there both priced almost the same the cap little more , will pump run the stericap
Different filters different plastics?

polypropylene = good & Polyethersulfone=bad


Anyway I'll appreciate any help
Thanks heaps

I used polystyrene funnel always and never had problem, gear always came clear.

Almost sure 1-2% ba diluted in oil is not enough to dissolve PS during the filtering time.
