Featuring nano-scale borosilicate glass microfiber technology delivering exceptional 0.5µm particle retention with extraordinary loading capacity and minimal back pressure. Combining the tightly regulated pore size of a microfiltration membrane with the loading capacity of a binderless glass microfiber filter, these nonsterile syringe filters maximize your sample throughput while maintaining superior analytical performance. Superior >20x loading capacity compared to equivalent porosity MCE or CN membrane with >15x the flow rate accelerates your sample preparation protocols even with challenging samples containing high particulate loads.
Key Glass Microfiber Membrane Characteristics
- Chemically inert, pure binderless borosilicate glass with no sizing additives or other surfactants eliminates interference and contamination risks
- Low background noise in LC/GC/MS and very low extractables in presence of aggressive solvents delivers reliable analytical results
- Over 85% of fiber content between 300nm-1000nm creates one of the highest surface area binderless glass microfiber products available
- Smooth glass fiber sheath allows tight consolidation into a highly retentive filter mat optimizing particle capture efficiency
- Usable temperature to 500°C with chemical stability in presence of all acids except hydrofluoric acid
Key Construction Characteristics
- 30mm diameter configuration accommodates standard syringe filter holders and laboratory filtration equipment
- Back pressure nearly non-existent compared to surface membranes reducing operator fatigue and increasing safety
- Hydrophilic surface chemistry supports both aqueous and solvent applications maximizing versatility
- Extremely high surface area with single fiber chemistry containing no supplemental materials or metals
- High protein affinity with washable properties enables separation recovery applications
These A83 NanoGF™ filters deliver exceptional performance for HPLC and UHPLC sample preparations, particularly with columns loaded with <0.20µm media. Extremely low analyte binding of the nano-scale borosilicate glass microfiber allows for low background scatter and very broad range solvent compatibility, accelerating your analytical workflows while maintaining data integrity. The 100-filter pack configuration optimizes your laboratory efficiency for high-volume sample processing applications requiring superior particulate removal with minimal sample loss.
