Whatman Puradisc Glass Fiber (GF) Syringe Filters, 0.7 µm, 25 mm, 50/Pk - 6825-2517
Whatman's filtration expertise, refined across a century-plus of disciplined manufacturing, has made its name synonymous with laboratory-grade quality worldwide. Sample preparation for chromatography often ends with a syringe filter on the path to the vial. The glass microfiber matrix accepts water-based samples on contact and delivers nominal retention as a depth medium. The PP housing sustains efficient flow on viscous samples while keeping the sample chemically unaltered across the pass and presses snugly against the membrane during the pass. When chromatographic methods demand particle-free injections, the column stays clean from run to run, protecting method performance and column life.
Technical Specifications
- Surface silanol groups attract water molecules for immediate aqueous wetting
- Inorganic construction suits demanding sample-preparation chemistries
- Biologically inert borosilicate fiber with broad chemical compatibility
- Extends filterable sample volume three to seven times versus unprotected media
- Autoclave steam sterilization at 121°C leaves structural integrity intact
Housing Specifications
- Housing tolerates elevated-temperature aqueous and solvent sample filtration up to about 80°C without softening.
- Dilute aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols used in sample prep do not degrade the polypropylene housing
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Rigid polypropylene body maintains its geometry through routine filtration pressure
Filtering buffers, reagents, and aqueous samples keeps your preparation moving and consistent. General-purpose aqueous filtration supports the sample types you handle every day so you can standardize one filter across most aqueous methods.
