Featuring hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with integrated glass microfiber and polypropylene prefilter layers delivering enhanced particle loading capacity for challenging sample matrices. This tri-layer configuration eliminates larger particles while providing 0.45µm final filtration, offering significantly higher throughput compared to standard filters when dealing with solutions rich in particles. The hydrophilic nylon construction proves effective for both water-based and organic samples, making it appropriate for HPLC, GC, and dissolution analysis applications.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- Inherently hydrophilic surface chemistry with very low extractables ensures minimal interference in analytical procedures
- High mechanical strength and stable chemical properties enable reliable filtration of both organic solvents and aqueous solutions
- Aliphatic nylon construction with good hydrophilicity resists appropriate concentrations of acids and alkalis while handling organic solvents, alcohols, hydrocarbons, ethers, esters, and ketones
- Wide chemical compatibility accommodates diverse sample types from buffers to mobile phases
- Excellent flow characteristics with minimal extractables and robust mechanical stability meet stringent analytical standards
Key Construction Characteristics
- Graduated glass fiber prefilter layer designed to eliminate larger particles before reaching the primary membrane
- Polypropylene intermediate layer enhances particle retention capacity while maintaining consistent flow rates
- Low-extractable polyethylene housing construction minimizes contamination risk in sensitive analytical applications
- Luer-Lock inlet connection provides secure, leak-tight syringe attachment for reliable operation
- Compatible with both manual and automated filtration systems for versatile laboratory integration
Standard 25mm diameter configuration fits onto standard luer-lock syringes for versatile applications including sample preparation, sterilization, and clarification of biological and pharmaceutical solutions while filtering out most bacteria and microorganisms. Optimized performance for clarification of samples, buffers, and mobile phases for HPLC and GC analysis, plus sterilization of lab water and buffers. The 0.45µm pore size proves ideal for filtering fine particulates from liquids, particularly where bacterial contamination needs removal, as most bacteria are larger than 0.45 microns, making this tri-layer system your reliable choice for enhanced throughput in particle-laden sample processing.
