Whatman Puradisc Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 13 mm, 500/Pk - 6781-1304
Whatman applies the same process controls across its filtration portfolio, verifying rated performance at the production lot level. At the point of sample preparation, a syringe filter removes particulates before the sample reaches the instrument. PES handles strong bases and oils across a broad aqueous range while preserving dilute proteins and analytes in the filtrate and draws aqueous samples through without pre-wetting. The polypropylene housing holds a reliable seal against the membrane edge and resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols. Where analytical results depend on clean samples, syringe filtration removes particulates at the moment of preparation.
Technical Specifications
- Naturally hydrophilic surface wets without pre-wetting in aqueous applications
- Absolute pore size rating gives consistent results across protocols
- High flow rate with low extractable background for clean preparations
- Broad compatibility with aqueous buffers, aliphatic alcohols, glycols, and strong bases
- Low protein binding preserves dilute analytes for maximum recovery
Housing Specifications
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols in routine sample prep
Filtering particulates upstream protects the column investment your methods depend on. Upstream buffer clarification keeps avoidable particulates out of your flow path across routine and validated analytical methods.
