CA Syringe Filter, 5.0um, 13mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Nonsterile, 100/Pk
Tisch SKU: SF17500

Tisch Scientific Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 5 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - SF17500

Tisch Scientific works with established filtration manufacturers to ensure reliable quality and performance. Across analytical workflows, the syringe filter is where particulates leave the sample stream. Cellulose acetate suits aqueous solutions, buffers, and alcohols in routine use while delivering absolute particle retention at the rated pore size and wets easily with aqueous buffers. Polypropylene construction resists chemical degradation from routine sample matrices while maintaining housing integrity through the filtration run and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. When method reproducibility rests on consistent sample prep, syringe filtration holds that standard injection after injection.

Technical Specifications

• Naturally hydrophilic surface wets readily with aqueous samples
• Stable with aqueous solutions, buffers, and alcohols across pH 4 to 8
• Smooth surface with low extractables and a uniform pore structure
• Absolute pore-size rating gives consistent retention across protocols
• Very low protein binding supports high recovery of dilute samples

Housing Specifications

• Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
• Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
• Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
• Resists stress cracking from aqueous salt and buffer solutions

A clean particulate separation keeps your aqueous sample preparation dependable. Consistent aqueous clarification keeps your sample preparation moving from the first sample of the day through the last.
