LabExact Mixed Cellulose Ester (MCE) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - LE-IWT-ES10106

Sample preparation for chromatography often ends with a syringe filter on the path to the vial. The mixed cellulose ester membrane clarifies particulates at the rated pore size while keeping throughput high across everyday filtration volumes and handles water-based and biological samples. The polypropylene housing holds its seal true run after run while shedding virtually no extractable material into the sample and sustains efficient flow on viscous samples. Where analytical results depend on clean samples, the preparation step stays consistent from sample to sample through a pre-tested syringe filter.

Membrane Characteristics

• Cellulose nitrate and cellulose acetate blend yields stable, precisely formed pore geometry
• Cellulose ester composition supports aqueous compatibility across common laboratory buffers
• Absolute retention rating repeats the same particle cutoff on every run
• Microporosity reaches up to 80 percent of total membrane volume
• Mixed cellulose ester derives its inherent hydrophilicity from its cellulose polymer base

Housing Characteristics

• Rated operating pressure supports filtration of high-resistance and viscous samples without housing distortion
• Minimal intrinsic autofluorescence from the polypropylene housing supports background-sensitive fluorescence-based assay work downstream
• Minimal extractable release from the housing supports sensitive analytical work downstream
• Minimal ionic background from the polypropylene housing supports ion chromatography and trace-metal ICP-MS sample preparation

Particulates in your buffers, reagents, and aqueous samples slow your preparation and throw off its consistency. General-purpose aqueous filtration supports the sample types you handle every day across your water-analysis and general analytical workflows.
