LabExact Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters, 0.22 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - LE-IWT-ES10128
Syringe filters replace the separate holder and vacuum apparatus of bulk filtration with a single disposable unit, eliminating cleaning between samples. The polypropylene matrix delivers nominal retention with high dirt-loading capacity while resisting a broad range of organic solvents, acids, and bases in service and stays well suited to solvent-rich, non-aqueous specimens. The PP housing stays inert across common laboratory solvents and buffers in routine use while pressing snugly against the membrane during the pass and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. 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.
Membrane Characteristics
- Polyolefin structure resists saponification under prolonged base contact
- Extractable levels remain very low across the depth matrix
- Withstands repeated steam autoclave cycles at 121°C without structural degradation
- Flexible polypropylene fiber matrix adapts to modest pressure cycles without fracture
- Low binding throughout the depth matrix preserves dilute analyte concentration
Housing Characteristics
- Translucent housing wall allows visual confirmation of sample flow during filtration
- Housing rated for reliable filtration under syringe-applied backpressure at its maximum operating pressure
- Minimal extractable release from the housing supports sensitive analytical work downstream
- Standardized luer connection geometry provides secure engagement with standard syringe tips
Particulates left in your organic solvents and reagents carry downstream into the step that depends on a clean feed. Solvent-stream filtration handles the solvents and reagents your methods rely on from initial prep through final use.
