Pall Acrodisc PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 25 mm, 200/Pk - AP-4790
Pall Corporation engineers proprietary membrane media and the Acrodisc housing platform, purpose-built for demanding analytical and bioprocess workflows. A syringe filter seats a membrane in a sealed housing that threads onto a standard luer fitting. Hydrophobic PTFE blocks aqueous ingress in vent and gas applications while resisting attack from the harshest process chemistries and filters aggressive organic solvents without breakdown. The polypropylene housing holds a reliable seal against the membrane edge while keeping the fluid path low in extractable contamination and resists degradation from routine sample matrices. Where analytical results depend on clean samples, syringe filtration removes particulates at the moment of preparation.
