Glass Fiber (GF) Syringe Filters - SF14701
Prefiltration of viscous samples and high-particulate solutions under aseptic conditions challenges laboratories when contamination risks accompany filter handling procedures. Sterile hydrophilic glass fiber membrane technology at 1.0 µm pore size solves this problem by providing ready-to-use coarse particle removal with exceptional dirt-loading capacity. The depth filtration structure traps particulates throughout the membrane thickness, enabling extended filter life with challenging sample matrices. Your controlled environment workflows benefit from individually packaged sterile filters combined with glass fiber's compatibility with organic solvents, strong acids, and bases.
Key Membrane Characteristics
- 1.0 µm glass fiber membrane delivers depth filtration with high dirt-loading capacity for viscous and heavily particulate samples
- 1.09 cm² filtration area in compact 13mm diameter handles routine aseptic sample volumes efficiently
- Hydrophilic surface properties enable rapid aqueous wetting while maintaining compatibility with diverse organic solvents
- Flow rate of 70 ml/min at 10 psi ensures efficient processing even with viscous samples requiring sterile handling
- Maximum operating pressure of 87 psi accommodates challenging sample matrices safely during aseptic operations
Key Construction Characteristics
- Polypropylene housing construction provides chemical resistance suitable for aggressive solvents, acids, and bases
- 20 µL holdup volume minimizes sample waste, particularly valuable when processing expensive reagents under sterile conditions
- Luer-Lok inlet with Luer Slip outlet combines secure syringe attachment with convenient collection vessel connection
- Individual sterile packaging ensures each filter maintains sterility until use, eliminating preparation and handling contamination risks
Each ready-to-use sterile filter eliminates preparation time while reducing contamination risks inherent in filter handling procedures. The glass fiber depth filtration structure provides exceptional dirt-loading capacity that extends filter life with challenging samples, reducing replacement frequency. Your pharmaceutical and biotechnology operations benefit from individually packaged sterile filters that deliver consistent coarse prefiltration performance combined with the broad chemical compatibility that glass fiber provides for demanding aseptic applications.
