Whatman
Pura Disc 13mm PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.45um, 100/Pk SKU: 6784-1304

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters, 0.45µm, 13mm - 6784-1304

Streamline your sample preparation workflows with the Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Whatman Puradisc, 13mm, Syringe Filter, 0.45µm, nonsterile 100/pk, constructed to handle high particulate loads while maintaining rapid throughput. To ensure analytical precision, the unit is constructed with a high-grade Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane providing a consistent 0.45 cutoff that passes only your target analyte. Complementing the membrane's purity, the housing's thermal bonding eliminates the need for adhesives, removing a common source of extractable contamination. The result is a filtration solution manufactured in an ISO-certified facility that minimizes distinct interference, providing clean baselines for publication-quality data.

Key Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Characteristics

• Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane with hydrophobic (requires pre-wetting) or hydrophilic (if treated) affinity
• Low Protein Binding characteristics
• Extreme chemical resistance to aggressive solvents, acids, and bases
• Hydrophobic version acts as an effective moisture barrier
• Verified 0.45 retention rating for clarification

Key Housing Characteristics

• High-purity Polypropylene encapsulation housing
• Luer-Lok/ Luer Slip for secure fitting
• 1.3cm² effective filtration area
• <25µl holdup volume to minimize sample loss

When you integrate these filters into your daily standard operating procedures, you are choosing a workflow that prioritizes efficiency without compromising results. Trust in the consistent performance of your filtration step to remove the variables that often lead to costly re-runs and ambiguous data. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.

• Organic Mobile Phases - Ideal for filtering 100% organic solvents in HPLC and GC workflows without any membrane degradation
• Cryogenic Fluids - Remains functional and integral even at extreme temperatures, protecting sensitive equipment from damage
• Aggressive Solvent Filtration - PTFE is chemically inert, making it the only choice for filtering strong acids and bases
• Aerosol Sampling - The hydrophobic nature of PTFE allows for gas venting and air monitoring applications in harsh environments
• Biological Fluid Analysis - Protects sensitive downstream instruments from removing particulates that can cause system failure
• General Laboratory Filtration - Increases workflow efficiency by protecting analytical instruments without sacrificing flow rates
