Whatman GD/X Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 13 mm, 150/Pk - 6876-1302
Whatman's expertise in cellulose, glass fiber, and polymeric membrane production guides material selection and quality control. Under hand pressure from the syringe, the membrane captures particulates as the sample passes through. Low-binding PES preserves dilute proteins and analytes in the filtrate while handling strong bases across a broad aqueous range and achieves sterile-grade retention with high recovery. Polypropylene construction maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path while preventing sample bypass under rated operating pressure and holds extractables low for sensitive analyses. Where small-volume samples must reach the instrument clean, syringe filtration clears particulates in a single pass.
