Whatman
GD/X 25mm 5.0um Syringe Filter, NYL SKU: 6871-2550

Nylon (NY) Syringe Filters, 5.0µm, 25mm - 6871-2550

Reducing background noise in analytical assays begins with proper clarification, and the Nylon Whatman GD/X 25mm Syringe Filter, nylon filtrationmedium, 5.0µm, 150/pk is engineered to remove interfering solids efficiently. Driving this clarification performance is a hydrophilic Nylon membrane featuring a verified 5.0 pore structure that captures target particulates while minimizing holdup volume. Complementing the membrane's purity, the housing's thermal bonding eliminates the need for adhesives, removing a common source of extractable contamination. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.

Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics

• Nylon membrane with hydrophilic affinity
• High Protein Binding characteristics
• Compatible with aqueous (non-acidic) solutions and most organic solvents
• High binding matrix: Avoid use with biological samples where yield is critical; incompatible with acidic solutions (pH < 3)
• Verified 5.0 retention rating for clarification

Key Housing Characteristics

• High-purity Polypropylene encapsulation housing
• Luer-Lok/ Luer Slip for secure fitting
• 4.6cm² effective filtration area
• 1400 µL holdup volume to minimize sample loss

When you integrate these filters into your daily standard operating procedures, you are choosing a workflow that prioritizes efficiency without compromising results. Protecting your downstream processes requires a defensive strategy, and utilizing these verified filters gives you the peace of mind that your work is safe. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.
