Whatman Puradisc Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 25 mm, 1000/Pk - 6794-2502
Whatman's expertise in cellulose, glass fiber, and polymeric membrane production guides material selection and quality control. A syringe filter seats a membrane in a sealed housing that threads onto a standard luer fitting. PES handles strong bases and oils across a broad aqueous range and accepts water-based reagents without preconditioning. The polypropylene housing contributes minimal extractables to the filtrate and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. For routine sample preparation across many methods, the syringe filter folds clarification into one disposable step.

Reproducible separations start with samples that reach the column free of particulates. Upstream sample clarification keeps your separations clean and reproducible from sample preparation through final injection.
