GD/X 13mm Syringe Filter, Glass Microfiber GF/D Filteration Medium, 2.7 um (150 pcs)
Whatman SKU: 6888-1327

Whatman GD/X Glass Fiber (GF) Syringe Filters, 2.7 µm, 13 mm, 150/Pk - 6888-1327

Whatman's expertise in cellulose, glass fiber, and polymeric membrane production guides material selection and quality control. Syringe filters give the analyst a single-use device for clarifying samples right at the bench. Glass fiber draws aqueous samples through without preconditioning while capturing particulates throughout its depth and tolerates repeated high-temperature conditioning cycles. The polypropylene housing routes flow to minimize backpressure in service and resists degradation from routine sample matrices. When chromatographic methods demand particle-free injections, point-of-use syringe filtration clarifies the sample before it reaches the column.

Technical Specifications

• Inorganic construction suits demanding sample-preparation chemistries
• Withstands high-temperature pre-conditioning up to 500°C
• Nominal depth retention with high dirt-loading capacity
• Naturally hydrophilic surface wets rapidly with aqueous samples
• Biologically inert borosilicate fiber with broad chemical compatibility

Housing Specifications

• Plasticizer-free polyolefin construction keeps the fluid path clean
• Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
• Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
• Rigid polypropylene body holds its shape under manual filtration pressure

Reproducible separations start with samples that reach the column free of particulates. Upstream sample clarification keeps your separations clean and reproducible across your HPLC and UHPLC methods. Ask our friendly customer service team to confirm the pore size, membrane, and sterility options your filtration application calls for.
