Whatman GD/X Cellulose Acetate (CA) Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 13 mm, 150/Pk - 6880-1302
Whatman's expertise in cellulose, glass fiber, and polymeric membrane production guides material selection and quality control. Across analytical workflows, the syringe filter is where particulates leave the sample stream. The cellulose acetate membrane keeps protein adsorption very low for accurate recovery while achieving bacterial retention at the rated pore size and suits aqueous solutions, buffers, and alcohols. Polypropylene construction holds extractable contribution low for sensitive analyses while holding a reliable seal against the membrane edge and resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols. Where small-volume samples must reach the instrument clean, syringe filtration clears particulates in a single pass.
Technical Specifications
- Smooth surface with low extractables and a uniform pore structure
- Absolute pore-size rating gives consistent retention across protocols
- Naturally hydrophilic surface wets readily with aqueous samples
- Sterile-grade retention at sub-micron pore sizes
- Very low protein binding supports high recovery of dilute samples
Housing Specifications
- Medical-grade polypropylene with broad chemical compatibility
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
- Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
