Whatman 3-Piece Filter Funnel 530mL, 125mm - 1/Pk - 1950-012
Whatman applies over a century of filtration media expertise, manufacturing under the quality standards that established its products as global laboratory references. A filter funnel draws an entire liquid sample through a seated membrane disc, gathering everything the membrane retains onto one surface for analysis. Glass fiber clears turbid samples ahead of a finer analytical membrane while carrying heavy particulate loads before blinding and captures particulates through its fibrous depth for clarification. Concentrating each sample onto a single membrane underpins the membrane filter technique behind regulated water and beverage microbiology.
Key Characteristics
- Borosilicate glass microfiber clarifies turbid samples through depth retention
- Withstands elevated temperatures for demanding sample preparation
- Serves as a prefilter that protects finer downstream membranes
- High dirt-holding capacity sustains throughput on particulate-laden samples
- Binder-free options keep extractables low for gravimetric work
Filtering buffers, reagents, and aqueous samples keeps your preparation moving and consistent. Consistent aqueous clarification keeps your sample preparation moving as a dependable step in your aqueous sample prep.
