GVS ABLUO Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 0.7/0.45 µm, 25 mm, 10/Pk - GF25BNPGA004AT01PF
Every GVS syringe filter passes an integrity test confirming proper fit and weld, verification that the assembly is sealed against filter bypass. Syringe filters span a wide range of membrane chemistries and pore sizes, so the format can be matched to the sample matrix and solvent system in use. Low-extractable cellulose acetate keeps filtrate clean ahead of analysis and screens out particulates exceeding that stated micron level. The MBS body forms a snug fit around the membrane to block bypass and copes reliably with routine aqueous sample matrices. 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.
Selected specifically for PFAS-free sample preparation, the filter avoids the fluoropolymer components that can release per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances into an aqueous filtrate during analysis. Validated PFAS-free under independent laboratory testing, the filter adds no measurable per- and polyfluoroalkyl background to the trace analytes a sensitive method works to quantify. 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.
Prefiltration
- Added glass fiber stage extends usable throughput by delaying membrane clogging
- Naturally hydrophilic borosilicate fiber wets quickly with aqueous samples
- Two-stage construction pairs a borosilicate glass fiber prefilter with the downstream membrane
- Glass fiber prefilter stage sustains flow through particle-laden, hard-to-filter samples
Membrane Characteristics
- Stable in aqueous saline, buffer, and protein solution matrices
- Naturally hydrophilic surface wets readily with aqueous samples
- Biologically nontoxic cellulose ester provides a clean filtration surface
- Cellulose ester backbone stable across aqueous pH range of 4 to 8
- Low extractable contribution keeps filtrate chemistry clean
Housing Characteristics
- Luer-compatible MBS housing connects directly to standard syringe tips for hand-pressure filtration
- Hard methacrylate surface resists scuffing through repeated handling
- Sub-wavelength core-shell rubber domains toughen the methacrylate matrix without introducing optical haze
- Handles aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols without issue during sample prep
A particulate-laden aqueous sample makes the rest of your preparation unpredictable. Consistent aqueous clarification clears particulates without slowing your bench routine the same way every time you run it.
