Nylon Syringe Filters - SF16004
The SF16004 nylon syringe filters feature a 33mm diameter with 0.22µm pore size, providing high-capacity sterile filtration and sterilization capabilities for larger volume applications requiring reliable bacterial removal. Tisch Scientific syringe filters excel at processing increased sample volumes up to 120ml while maintaining complete microbial retention, making them ideal for bulk media preparation and pharmaceutical solutions. SF16004 filters deliver the enhanced throughput capacity essential for laboratories needing efficient sterilization of multiple samples or larger batches without frequent filter changes.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- 0.22µm absolute pore rating ensures complete bacterial removal and sterilization, providing validated sterile filtrate for high-volume critical applications
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane enables immediate filtration of aqueous solutions without pre-wetting, maintaining consistent 12ml/min flow rates at 10 psi
- Autoclavable construction withstands sterilization at 121°C for 30 minutes, allowing pre-sterilization when aseptic processing is required
- High-capacity design processes volumes up to 120ml while maintaining bacterial retention efficiency throughout extended filtration procedures
- Low protein binding properties preserve valuable proteins and biomolecules during sterile filtration, essential for cell culture and biopharmaceutical applications
Key Construction Characteristics
- Medical-grade polypropylene housing provides exceptional chemical resistance and maintains structural integrity at pressures up to 87 psi burst pressure
- 33mm diameter format maximizes filtration area for higher volume applications, optimizing throughput while ensuring complete sterilization
- Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip compatibility ensures secure connections with larger syringes and prevents disconnection during extended filtration procedures
- Validated performance meets industry standards with bubble point specification of 0.28 psi, confirming membrane integrity for sterilization protocols
SF16004 syringe filters provide the high-capacity sterilization performance your larger volume applications demand while maintaining the bacterial retention standards your protocols require. Tisch Scientific's combination of proven 0.22µm sterilizing membrane technology and expanded 33mm diameter design ensures you'll achieve efficient sterile filtration across increased sample volumes. Your scale-up processes benefit from the 120ml throughput capacity and autoclavable construction that make the SF16004 essential when your sterilization needs exceed standard filter limitations.
