GVS ABLUO Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 1.2 µm, 13 mm, 50/Pk - FJ13ASCCA012CL01
GVS casts its own microporous membranes and assembles them into finished syringe filters under one roof, rather than sourcing either component externally. A syringe filter dispenses filtrate directly into an autosampler vial, without the intermediate collection vessel a bulk vacuum filtration setup typically needs. Cellulose acetate suits aqueous solutions, buffers, and alcohols in routine use while keeping filtrate clean ahead of analysis and maintains a particle cutoff at that rating. MBS construction holds up to aqueous samples and buffers in routine prep while combining surface hardness with impact strength and shows the sample as it moves through. Where bench-scale prep must move quickly from one sample to the next, each sample starts as clean as the last without a carry-over risk or a cleaning step between uses.
Membrane Characteristics
- No alcohol pre-wetting required before aqueous sample introduction
- Smooth membrane face with even pore distribution across the active filtration area
- Lot-to-lot uniformity in pore distribution produces consistent retention across batches
- Cellulose acetate's open pore structure supports high flow rates at low operating pressure
- Dilute samples retain their true, unadsorbed concentration through the membrane
Housing Characteristics
- 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
- Dimensionally stable body maintains housing integrity under hand pressure
- Bisphenol-A-free composition keeps background signal out of trace-level BPA and endocrine-disruptor testing
Particulates in your buffers, reagents, and aqueous samples slow your preparation and throw off its consistency. Consistent aqueous clarification clears particulates without slowing your bench routine the same way every time you run it. Request a quality certificate, lot documentation, or a blanket-order quote for your filtration order at any time.
