Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters, 0.2µm, 13mm - 4450

When sample purity is non-negotiable, the Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters serves as a reliable safeguard, effectively removing microorganisms from aqueous solutions. To achieve this medical-grade standard, the filter utilizes a Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) membrane that provides a sharp 0.2 cutoff necessary for sterilizing biological fluids. To guarantee structural reliability, each unit undergoes strict quality control to ensure the housing and membrane seal withstand standard operating pressures without leakage. Consequently, by reducing the risk of downstream contamination, these filters serve as a critical safeguard for the integrity of your experimental results.
