Nylon Syringe Filters - SF18106
The SF18106 nylon syringe filters combine a 13mm diameter with 1.0µm pore size, delivering high-flow coarse filtration and prefiltration capabilities optimized for small-volume precious samples requiring rapid processing. Tisch Scientific syringe filters excel at removing particles and cellular debris while maintaining exceptional flow rates of 80ml/min at 10 psi in a compact format ideal for limited sample quantities. SF18106 filters provide the perfect balance between effective particle retention and maximum throughput speed when working with valuable materials that cannot be diluted or wasted.
Key Nylon Membrane Characteristics
- 1.0µm pore size rating provides efficient coarse filtration and prefiltration, removing particles, microorganisms, and cellular debris while maintaining high flow rates
- Naturally hydrophilic membrane enables immediate filtration of aqueous solutions without pre-wetting, sustaining consistent 80ml/min throughput throughout processing
- Exceptional flow-to-size ratio delivers remarkably high flow rates for a 13mm format, minimizing processing time for precious small-volume samples
- Broad chemical compatibility supports filtration of both aqueous and organic solvents, accommodating diverse sample types in research and analytical workflows
- Temperature stability to 100°C permits processing of heated samples and enables autoclave sterilization at 121°C when sterile handling is required
Key Construction Characteristics
- Durable polypropylene housing provides excellent chemical resistance and maintains structural integrity at pressures up to 87 psi burst pressure
- 13mm diameter format offers 1.09cm² effective filtration area specifically designed for small-volume samples with 10ml throughput capacity
- Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip compatibility ensures secure connections with standard syringes while preventing sample loss during high-flow filtration
- Minimal 20µl holdup volume maximizes recovery of precious samples despite the high-flow design, critical for expensive or irreplaceable materials
SF18106 syringe filters deliver the specialized high-flow performance your small-volume applications require when both speed and sample conservation are critical. Tisch Scientific's combination of 1.0µm nylon membrane technology and compact 13mm design ensures you'll achieve rapid filtration while preserving your most valuable samples. Your research benefits from the exceptional 80ml/min flow rate in a small format that makes the SF18106 ideal for applications where precious sample volumes demand both efficient particle removal and minimal processing time.
