Description

Turn any jar lid or culture container into a breathable, contamination-proof workspace in seconds. The Microppose 28mm 0.3 Micron Self-Adhesive Lid Filter Stickers peel and stick directly over a drilled hole in metal or plastic lids, letting your culture breathe while blocking airborne spores and bacteria.

Backed by industrial-strength 3M adhesive, these filters stay put through handling, autoclaving, and long incubation runs — no peeling, no falling off. Each sheet gives you 21 filters, and the larger 28mm face delivers extra gas exchange — ideal for wide-mouth jars, larger lids, and tubs where more airflow means faster, cleaner colonization.

Why Growers Choose These Filters

  • True 0.3 Micron Filtration – Stops contaminant spores and bacteria while allowing clean, consistent gas exchange.
  • Larger 28mm Surface – More filter area for better airflow on wide-mouth jars and tubs.
  • Won't Fall Off – Industrial 3M adhesive holds through autoclaving, humidity, and months of incubation.
  • Breathes Better – A proprietary micron layer resists moisture saturation for faster, cleaner colonization.

How to Apply

  • Drill or punch a hole in your jar lid or tissue culture lid (a 3/8" to 1/2" hole pairs well with the 28mm size).
  • Peel a filter from the sheet and press it firmly over the opening, centering it so the adhesive fully seals around the hole.
  • Pair with a self-healing injection port for a complete DIY sterile lid ready for inoculation and transfers.

Key Features

  • 0.3 micron filtration efficiency – blocks spores and bacteria, allows clean airflow
  • Strong 3M adhesive backing – stays put even after autoclaving
  • Hydrophobic & oleophobic – resists moisture saturation and oil
  • Fully autoclavable – high-temperature resistant for repeated sterilization
  • Made from 100% recycled material
  • 21 filters per sheet – 28mm round

Common Uses

  • Wide-mouth grain spawn and liquid culture jars
  • Agar work and spore-to-liquid culture
  • Plant tissue culture vessels and larger containers
  • DIY sterile lids for injections and transfers

Unlike the re-purposed filters sold everywhere else, these use a unique proprietary micron layer that does not break down from steam, resists moisture saturation, and breathes far better than cheaper alternatives — giving you faster, cleaner colonization every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size hole should I drill for these filters?

Drill or punch a hole smaller than the filter so the 3M adhesive fully seals around the edge. For the 28mm size, a 3/8" to 1/2" hole works well and takes full advantage of the larger filter surface.

Can these be autoclaved or pressure cooked?

Yes. They are fully autoclavable and high-temperature resistant. The 3M adhesive and proprietary micron layer hold up to repeated steam sterilization without peeling or breaking down.

What can I use them for?

Wide-mouth grain spawn jars, liquid culture, agar work, and plant tissue culture vessels — anywhere you need sterile gas exchange with extra airflow. Pair them with a self-healing injection port to build a complete DIY sterile lid for inoculation and transfers.

How is 0.3 micron different from cheaper filter discs?

The 0.3 micron layer blocks bacteria and mold spores while still breathing well. Unlike re-purposed filters, this proprietary layer resists moisture saturation and does not degrade from steam, so you get more reliable, faster colonization.

Should I get the 28mm or the 18mm?

Choose the 28mm (21 per sheet) for more filter surface area on wide-mouth jars, larger lids, or tubs where extra gas exchange helps. Go with the 18mm (50 per sheet) for standard grain spawn jars, liquid culture jars, and small tissue culture containers.

Complete Your Sterile Lid

Pair these filters with a self-healing injection port to build a reusable DIY sterile lid you can inoculate again and again without contamination.
