Tisch Scientific Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 5 µm, 30 mm, 100/Pk - SF18290
Tisch Scientific carries a broad filtration catalog covering membranes, devices, and consumables for the laboratory. Syringe filters mount on a syringe to clarify a sample in a single manual pass. Low-binding cellulose acetate preserves dilute proteins in the filtrate while drawing aqueous samples through readily and delivers absolute particle retention at the rated pore size. The polypropylene housing routes flow to minimize backpressure in service while holding extractables low for sensitive analyses and maintains housing integrity through the filtration run. When chromatographic methods demand particle-free injections, point-of-use syringe filtration clarifies the sample before it reaches the column.
Technical Specifications
