Whatman Puradisc Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 25 mm, 200/Pk - 6788-2504
Whatman standardizes its manufacturing platform to the point that consistency and thorough lot-level records come as a default, exactly what analytical laboratory work demands. Because each syringe filter is dedicated to one sample, a failed or contaminated filtration never delays the next analyst's run waiting on a shared holder. Polypropylene tolerates solvents and acids that degrade many membranes and keeps water out during solvent and gas-purge steps. Polypropylene construction resists chemical degradation from routine sample matrices while holding its form through high-temperature sample preparation conditions and presses snugly against the membrane during the pass. Where small-volume samples must reach the instrument clean, low hold-up volume keeps sample loss minimal while the instrument stays protected from particulate damage.
Technical Specifications
- Withstands fluids across the full pH range from 1 to 14
- Saturated hydrocarbon backbone resists the hydrolytic degradation common in ester-linked filter media
- Anion leaching stays very low from the matrix
- Wets through readily under modest differential pressure despite an inherently hydrophobic surface
- Extractable levels remain very low across the depth matrix
Housing Specifications
- Translucent housing wall allows visual confirmation of sample flow during filtration
- The seal formed against the membrane blocks bypass at rated operating pressure
- Plasticizer-free polyolefin construction keeps the fluid path clean
- Minimal intrinsic autofluorescence from the polypropylene housing supports background-sensitive fluorescence-based assay work downstream.
Filtering aggressive solvents and reagents through a filter that holds up to the chemistry keeps your sample prep reliable. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples before it moves on to your next process step.
