Pura Disc 13mm Nylon Syringe Filters, 0.1um, 100/Pk SKU: 6789-1301

Nylon (NY) Syringe Filters, 0.1µm, 13mm - 6789-1301

For critical applications requiring absolute sterility assurance, the Nylon Whatman Puradisc, 13mm, Syringe Filter, 0.1µm 100/pk series provides a verified barrier against bacterial contamination. To achieve this medical-grade standard, the filter utilizes a Nylon membrane that provides a sharp 0.1 cutoff necessary for sterilizing biological fluids. To guarantee structural reliability, each unit undergoes strict quality control to ensure the housing and membrane seal withstand standard operating pressures without leakage. Consequently, by reducing the risk of downstream contamination, these filters serve as a critical safeguard for the integrity of your experimental results.

Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics

• Nylon membrane with hydrophilic affinity
• High Protein Binding characteristics
• Compatible with aqueous (non-acidic) solutions and most organic solvents
• High binding matrix: Avoid use with biological samples where yield is critical; incompatible with acidic solutions (pH < 3)
• 0.1 rating suitable for sterile filtration

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. Protecting your downstream processes requires a defensive strategy, and utilizing these verified filters gives you the peace of mind that your work is safe. Make the decision for consistency and reliability, ensuring that your laboratory maintains its reputation for high-quality, error-free output.
