Pall Acrodisc Leukosorb Syringe Filters, Nominal Retention, 25 mm, 50/Pk - AP-4952
Quality controls across fiber web formation and finished device testing support consistent capture performance across Pall lots. At the bench, a leukocyte-capture syringe filter retains white cells while the filtrate passes through to collection. The Leukosorb web holds captured cells recoverable by reverse flow and draws on both size exclusion and adsorption. Polypropylene construction holds extractable contribution low for sensitive analyses while maintaining housing integrity through the filtration run and routes flow to minimize backpressure in service. Where downstream extraction depends on recovered white cells, the capture step concentrates them from the draw volume.
Technical Specifications
- Fiber surface tuned for surface charge and critical wetting surface tension
- Multimodal fiber matrix captures leukocytes by size retention and adsorption
- Red blood cells and platelets deform and pass into the filtrate
- Retained leukocytes elute under reverse flow for downstream recovery
- Leukocyte reduction of whole blood samples in a single forward pass
Housing Specifications
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Medical-grade polypropylene with broad chemical compatibility
- Stable across the full aqueous pH range in routine sample work
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
When you are working from a limited blood draw, the separation step has to succeed the first time. Single-pass cell separation shortens your sample handling before extraction, staining, or cell counting.
