Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters - SF17500

Environmental and biotechnology laboratories require coarse prefiltration solutions that protect downstream analytical equipment from gross particulates while processing small-volume samples rapidly without compromising biological sample integrity throughout preparation workflows. Advanced 5.0µm cellulose acetate membrane technology with integrated polypropylene prefiltration combines exceptional 120ml flow rates with low protein binding characteristics. Hydrophilic design with autoclavable construction accommodates immediate aqueous processing, supporting versatile applications from biological sample clarification to environmental water testing where rapid gross particle removal drives operational efficiency.

Key Cellulose Acetate Membrane Characteristics

Coarse 5.0µm retention efficiently removes large particulates from biological and environmental matrices while maintaining exceptional 120ml flow characteristics for rapid small-volume processing
Low protein binding affinity preserves biological sample integrity by minimizing adsorptive losses during filtration, maintaining protein concentrations critical for accurate downstream analysis
Hydrophilic membrane construction provides immediate filtration capability without pre-wetting requirements, eliminating preparation delays and accelerating throughput in routine operations
Integrated polypropylene prefilter captures gross debris upstream of the cellulose acetate membrane, extending operational life and sustaining flow rates through samples
Autoclavable design enables users to sterilize filters in-house at 121°C for 30 minutes, supporting customized preparation protocols and reducing operational costs

Key Construction Characteristics

Minimal 20µL holdup volume preserves valuable samples during 1-10ml processing where every microliter directly impacts analytical precision and experimental outcomes
Compact 13mm platform delivers space-efficient prefiltration for small-volume applications with exceptional 120ml flow rate performance at 87psi maximum operating pressure
Dual Luer-Lok/Luer Slip connectivity provides flexible interface options with standard laboratory syringes, eliminating adapter requirements and streamlining workflow integration
Thermally stable polypropylene housing operates reliably up to 60°C maximum temperature for ambient and moderately elevated processing conditions
