Featuring a naturally hydrophilic cellulose acetate (CA) membrane with a 5.0um pore size, these nonsterile syringe filters deliver rapid clarification and prefiltration of aqueous and organic solutions. The 25mm membrane is sealed within a modified acrylic housing that bidirectionally supports the membrane, allowing both sample injection and aspiration. Brown housing color aids quick identification, and the PFAS-free construction makes the device well suited to sample preparation where fluoropolymer contamination must be avoided.
Key Cellulose Acetate Membrane Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane wets out readily for aqueous and alcohol-based solutions.
- Low protein binding preserves analyte recovery, ideal for protein and biological fluid handling.
- 5.0um pore size targets coarse particulate removal and prefiltration ahead of finer downstream membranes.
- High effective filtration area supports increased throughput and faster sample preparation.
- Each filter is labeled with the specific filter material and pore size for easy identification outside its original packaging.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Modified acrylic housing bidirectionally supports the membrane for injection or aspiration.
- Female Luer Lock inlet and Male Luer Lock outlet connections (FLL/MLL).
- Nonsterile, PFAS-free build with a brown housing for visual identification.
- Maximum operating pressure up to 75 psi.
- Supplied 100 per pack.
The integrity-tested housing and weld help eliminate potential filter bypass for consistent, reproducible results. Low hold-up volume maximizes sample recovery while maintaining sample integrity. Together these features provide reliable, high-flow clarification across routine laboratory workflows.
