Featuring a hydrophilic Cellulose Acetate (CA) membrane housed in an ultrasonically welded acrylic body, this 13mm syringe filter delivers fast clarification of aqueous, organic, and alcohol solutions with low nonspecific binding. The 5.0um pore size targets coarse particulate removal and prefiltration, while the bidirectionally supported membrane permits sample injection or aspiration. Each nonsterile unit is supplied in a brown-coded acrylic housing with a Female Luer Lock inlet and Male Luer Slip outlet, packaged 500 per box.
Key Cellulose Acetate Membrane Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic for rapid, even wetting of aqueous solutions.
- Low nonspecific binding and low adsorption to protect sample integrity.
- Thermally stable membrane with a uniform pore structure.
- 5.0um pore size suited to coarse particulate removal and prefiltration.
- Compatible with aqueous, organic, and alcohol solutions.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Ultrasonically welded acrylic housing, 18mm housing diameter, integrity tested against filter by-pass.
- Female Luer Lock inlet and Male Luer Slip outlet for secure syringe attachment.
- Effective filtration area of 0.6 cm with a 13mm membrane diameter.
- Nonsterile, brown color-coded for pore size identification, 500 per pack.
- Each filter is labeled with the specific membrane material and pore size.
The bidirectional membrane support and welded construction maintain a reliable filter fit, eliminating potential by-pass during processing. The low-binding cellulose acetate medium preserves analyte recovery, delivering consistent clarification across repeated sample preparation steps.
