Pura Disc 25mm PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.45um, 1000 Pk SKU: 6798-2504

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters, 0.45µm, 25mm - 6798-2504

In high-throughput analytical laboratories, the Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Whatman Puradisc, 25mm, Syringe Filter, 0.45µm, nonsterile 1000/pk series establishes a standard for effective particulate removal and sample clarification. Facilitating rapid sample turnover, the hydrophobic Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane structure ensures the 0.45 rating remains consistent even under pressure. Designed to facilitate rapid processing, the housing features an optimized flow geometry that minimizes backpressure, allowing for easier manual filtration even with viscous samples. 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
• 4.2cm² effective filtration area
• <100µl holdup volume to minimize sample loss

Your laboratory throughput depends on reliable consumables, and these filters are designed to keep your sequences running smoothly, sample after sample. You invest significant resources into your samples; safeguarding them with a proven filtration barrier is a cost-effective insurance policy for your lab. Secure your research outcomes by partnering with a filtration solution that understands your need for speed, accuracy, and reproducibility.

Hydrophobic

• Aggressive Solvent Filtration - PTFE is chemically inert, making it the only choice for filtering strong acids and bases
• Cryogenic Fluids - Remains functional and integral even at extreme temperatures, protecting sensitive equipment from damage
• Organic Mobile Phases - Ideal for filtering 100% organic solvents in HPLC and GC workflows without any membrane degradation
• Aerosol Sampling - The hydrophobic nature of PTFE allows for gas venting and air monitoring applications in harsh environments
• General Laboratory Filtration - Increases workflow efficiency by protecting analytical instruments without sacrificing flow rates
• Research & Development - Supports protocols that need to remove particulates, providing the ability to protect analytical instruments
