Whatman Puradisc Glass Fiber (GF) Syringe Filters, 1.2 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - 6822-1312
Whatman maintains in-house specialists who set and verify material specifications separately for its cellulose, glass-fiber, and polymer membrane chemistries, tailoring quality control to how each one behaves in use. A syringe filter's small hold-up volume limits sample loss, a meaningful difference when working with a limited or precious sample. The glass microfiber matrix accepts water-based samples on contact and resists chemical attack across diverse solvents. The PP housing stays inert across common laboratory solvents and buffers in routine use while leaving no seam for sample to bypass the membrane and keeps the sample chemically unaltered across the pass. Where bench-scale prep must move quickly from one sample to the next, each sample starts as clean as the last without a carry-over risk or a cleaning step between uses.
Technical Specifications
- Autoclave steam sterilization at 121°C leaves structural integrity intact
- Biologically inert borosilicate fiber with broad chemical compatibility
- Inorganic construction suits demanding sample-preparation chemistries
- Surface silanol groups attract water molecules for immediate aqueous wetting
- Extends filterable sample volume three to seven times versus unprotected media
Housing Specifications
- Housing tolerates elevated-temperature aqueous and solvent sample filtration up to about 80°C without softening.
- Minimal ionic background from the polypropylene housing supports ion chromatography and trace-metal ICP-MS sample preparation.
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Inert polyolefin wall contributes minimal sample adsorption to the filtrate
Clarify your routine aqueous samples in a single pass and cut down on juggling multiple filter types at the bench.
