Nylon Syringe Filters, 3.0um, 13mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: SF18105

Nylon Syringe Filter - SF18105

Featuring naturally hydrophilic nylon membrane technology with 3.0µm pore structure in a compact 13mm diameter design for efficient coarse filtration and prefiltration applications. This filter delivers impressive 60ml/minute flow rates through 1.09cm² active membrane area while conserving precious samples with minimal 20µl holdup volume. The integrated polypropylene prefilter extends membrane life by capturing larger particles before primary filtration, optimizing performance for particle-laden samples.

Key Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally hydrophilic membrane provides immediate wettability without pre-treatment for rapid sample processing
• Coarse 3.0µm pore size removes larger particulates and debris, protecting downstream fine filters
• Integrated PP prefilter captures extra-large particles, significantly extending primary membrane operational life
• Excellent chemical compatibility with aqueous non-acidic solutions and compatible organic solvents
• Temperature stability to 60°C with autoclave compatibility at 121°C for sterilization requirements

Key Construction Characteristics

• Chemical-resistant polypropylene housing withstands 87psi burst pressure, ensuring operational integrity
• Space-efficient 13mm diameter design optimized for small-volume high-flow prefiltration applications
• Ultra-low 20µl holdup volume maximizes recovery of valuable samples and expensive reagents
• Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip connections guarantee compatibility with standard laboratory syringes
• Autoclavable construction allows on-site sterilization for contamination-sensitive workflows

Exceptional prefiltration efficiency meets remarkable 60ml/minute flow rates in a design specifically optimized for small-volume applications where sample conservation is critical. Your laboratory achieves optimal processing speed through impressive flow capacity combined with minimal holdup volume, ensuring both rapid clarification and maximum sample recovery. Integrated prefilter design protects the primary membrane from premature clogging, extending filter life when processing heavily particulate samples.

Hydrophilic

• Coarse Prefiltration - Removes large particulates before fine filtration in sequential protocols, protecting expensive downstream 0.45µm and 0.22µm filters
• HPLC Sample Prefiltration - Protects analytical columns by removing coarse contaminants from sample matrices before injection
• Environmental Sample Processing - Clarifies sediment-laden water samples and soil extracts before analytical testing procedures
• Dissolution Testing Prefiltration - Removes coarse tablet fragments and undissolved excipients from pharmaceutical dissolution samples
• Viscous Solution Clarification - Processes high-viscosity samples requiring rapid throughput that would quickly clog finer membranes
• Industrial QC Sample Preparation - Clarifies manufacturing samples containing visible particulates for quality control testing procedures
