GVS ABLUO Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - FJ13ANCCA004FH01PF
Class 100,000 cleanroom conditions govern GVS's syringe filter and membrane production, held to the specifications its quality management system defines. A syringe filter dispenses filtrate directly into an autosampler vial, without the intermediate collection vessel a bulk vacuum filtration setup typically needs. The cellulose acetate surface stays smooth with low extractable background while admitting water-based reagents immediately, with no surfactant step and binds BSA at 3.8 micrograms per square centimeter. MBS construction holds up to aqueous samples and buffers in routine prep and combines surface hardness with impact strength. Where small-volume samples must reach the instrument clean, low hold-up volume keeps sample loss minimal while the instrument stays protected from particulate damage.
PFAS-free across the wetted path, the device introduces no per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances of its own into the filtrate as the sample passes through the housing and membrane. Backed by independent PFAS-free verification, the device gives analysts confidence that a detected per- and polyfluoroalkyl signal originates in the sample rather than the filter, even at parts-per-trillion levels. In environmental, wastewater, and food-safety PFAS testing, reported per- and polyfluoroalkyl concentrations reflect the sample itself rather than the filter used to prepare it for analysis.
Membrane Characteristics
- Cellulose ester backbone stable across aqueous pH range of 4 to 8
- Absolute-rated pores ensure the same particle cutoff every run
- Naturally hydrophilic surface wets readily with aqueous samples
- Stable in aqueous saline, buffer, and protein solution matrices
- Native surface hydroxyl groups sustain a hydration layer ahead of protein contact
Housing Characteristics
- Dimensionally stable body maintains housing integrity under hand pressure
- Hard methacrylate surface resists scuffing through repeated handling
- Optically clear MBS housing keeps the sample visible end to end
- Sub-wavelength core-shell rubber domains toughen the methacrylate matrix without introducing optical haze
Juggling several filter types for one routine clarification eats up your bench time. Consistent aqueous clarification clears particulates without slowing your bench routine across the buffers and reagents your day-to-day prep depends on.
