Nylon Syringe Filters, 5.0um, 47mm, Gridded, Nonsterile, 100/Pk
GVS SKU: 3048260

Featuring a naturally hydrophilic Nylon 66 membrane internally supported by an inert polyester web, this 47mm gridded disc filter delivers a 5.0um pore size for general filtration, sample clarification, and HPLC sample preparation. The supported construction provides dimensional strength and stability that prevents cracking, tearing, curling, and breaking during aggressive handling or use with automated equipment. Because the membrane is naturally hydrophilic, it wets out evenly without wetting agents that can interfere with biological processes, and it is supplied nonsterile in a pack of 100.

Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally hydrophilic: Wets out evenly with water and aqueous solutions and eliminates the need for wetting agents that can interfere with biological processes.
• Polyester-supported structure: An inert internal polyester web adds dimensional strength and stability that prevents cracking, tearing, curling, and breaking.
• Broad solvent compatibility: Nylon 66 is compatible with most aqueous and alcoholic solvents and solutions, supporting a wide range of laboratory filtration work.
• Low extractables: Contributes minimal extractable material, helping keep filtrate clean for more consistent results.
• Durable for automation: Superior strength withstands aggressive handling and use with automated equipment.

Key Construction Characteristics

• Diameter: 47mm disc format.
• Pore size: 5.0um.
• Surface: Gridded for convenient counting and sample organization.
• Sterility: Supplied nonsterile.
• Pack: 100 discs per pack.

This supported nylon disc maintains its integrity through repeated handling and automated processing, delivering consistent flow and reliable particulate capture. Its naturally hydrophilic surface and low-extractable profile help preserve sample integrity across aqueous and alcoholic samples, providing dependable performance in routine filtration and analytical sample preparation.

• Sample Clarification Removes particulates from aqueous and organic solvent samples to produce clean, particle-free filtrate prior to analysis.
• HPLC Sample Preparation Clarifies samples and mobile phases ahead of chromatographic analysis to protect columns and improve reproducibility.
• Particulate Removal Captures coarse particulates at a 5.0um rating, making it well suited as a clarifying or prefiltration step for heavily loaded samples.
• Solvent and Mobile Phase Filtration Filters compatible aqueous and alcoholic solvents thanks to nylon's broad solvent compatibility.
• General Laboratory Filtration Provides durable, dimensionally stable filtration for routine bench work and automated equipment.
• Environmental Sample Prep Clarifies particulate-laden samples to protect finer downstream membranes during multistage filtration.
