Nylon Syringe Filters - SF17502
The SF17502 nylon syringe filters feature an ultra-compact 4mm diameter with 0.22µm pore size, providing sterile filtration and sterilization capabilities specifically designed for microvolume applications where sample preservation is critical. Tisch Scientific syringe filters excel at removing bacteria and particulates from precious samples while minimizing holdup volume to just 5µl, making them ideal for expensive reagents and limited biological specimens. SF17502 filters deliver reliable sterilization performance in the smallest format available, perfect for applications where every microliter of sterile filtrate matters.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- 0.22µm absolute pore rating ensures complete removal of bacteria and microorganisms, providing sterile filtrate for critical microvolume applications
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane enables immediate filtration of aqueous solutions without pre-wetting, maintaining controlled 0.5ml/min flow rates at 10 psi
- Low protein binding properties preserve valuable proteins and biomolecules during sterile filtration, essential for precious biological samples
- Broad chemical compatibility supports the sterilization of both aqueous solutions and compatible organic solvents used in analytical and research protocols
- Temperature stability to 100°C permits filtration of heated samples and enables autoclave sterilization at 121°C for applications requiring certified sterility
Key Construction Characteristics
- Medical-grade polypropylene housing provides excellent chemical resistance and maintains integrity at pressures up to 87 psi burst pressure
- 4mm diameter format offers 0.125cm² filtration area, specifically engineered for ultra-small volume samples up to 1ml throughput
- Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip compatibility ensures secure connections with microvolume syringes while preventing sample loss during critical filtrations
- Minimal 5µl holdup volume maximizes recovery of expensive samples, critical for irreplaceable specimens and costly reagents
SF17502 syringe filters provide the specialized sterile filtration performance your microvolume applications demand when sample conservation is paramount. Tisch Scientific's combination of 0.22µm sterilizing membrane technology and ultra-compact 4mm design ensures you'll achieve reliable bacterial removal while preserving your most valuable samples. Your critical research benefits from the minimal 5µl holdup volume and certified sterilization capability that make the SF17502 essential for applications where sterility and sample recovery determine experimental success.
