Pura Disc 13mm PES Syringe Filters, 0.45um, 500 Pk SKU: 6781-1304

Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters, 0.45µm, 13mm - 6781-1304

In high-throughput analytical laboratories, the Polyethersulfone (PES) Whatman Puradisc, 13mm, Syringe Filter, 0.45µm, nonsterile 500/pk series establishes a standard for effective particulate removal and sample clarification. At the core of the device is a uniform Polyethersulfone (PES) matrix, delivering high dirt-loading capacity and reliable exclusion of interfering particles. Complementing the membrane's purity, the housing's thermal bonding eliminates the need for adhesives, removing a common source of extractable contamination. Meeting the needs of regulated environments, this series supports compliance with stringent purity protocols across pharmaceutical and environmental applications.
