PVDF Hydrophobic Syringe Filter, Nonsterile - 0.45µm, 30mm, Luer-Lok, 100/pk SKU: LE-IWT-ES10333

Featuring hydrophobic polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane technology delivering low protein binding performance for protein solutions and mild organic solvent filtration applications. High flow rates with 0.45µm pore configuration provide precise particulate removal while maintaining sample integrity in analytical protocols. Chemically resistant fluoropolymer construction withstands a wide range of solvents, acids, and bases commonly used in laboratory processes, maximizing your filtration versatility across diverse sample types.

Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics

• Low protein binding properties minimize adsorption of proteins and biomolecules onto the filter surface, ensuring accurate analytical results
• Hydrophobic membrane repels water and aqueous solutions while allowing organic solvents and non-polar liquids to pass through
• Excellent chemical resistance makes filters suitable for aggressive solvents, acids, bases, and organic compounds without compromising integrity
• Maximum operating temperature of 60°C enables reliable performance in elevated temperature applications
• Broad chemical compatibility with wide range of solvents and organic compounds (strong bases should be avoided)

Key Construction Characteristics

• 30mm diameter with 0.45µm pore size optimizes particulate retention for analytical sample preparation and clarification
• Standard Luer-Lok fitting ensures universal compatibility with standard syringes for secure, leak-free connections
• Concentric funnel-shaped barrel design increases filtrate volume capacity while decreasing back pressure during operation
• Ultrasonic bonding construction delivers reliable seal integrity and consistent performance across filtration cycles
• Filter media type clearly inscribed on barrel provides instant identification and reduces handling errors

High flow rate performance accelerates sample processing even during extended filtration sessions, improving your laboratory efficiency when processing multiple samples. Low extractables and UV transparency characteristics prove crucial for HPLC and UV-sensitive analytical protocols, while compatibility with protein solutions and mild organic solutions maximizes application flexibility. Ideal for HPLC/GC sample preparation, protein filtration, and analytical instrument protection, these nonsterile filters deliver exceptional unit-to-unit and lot-to-lot reproducibility for your critical laboratory applications requiring reliable particulate removal and sample clarification.
