GVS ABLUO Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters, 0.22 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - FJ13BNPPS002AH01
GVS casts its own microporous membranes and assembles them into finished syringe filters under one roof, rather than sourcing either component externally. A sterilizing-grade syringe filter carries manufacturer bacterial retention testing built into the design, giving analysts documented sterile-grade performance without repeating that testing in-house for the format. PES admits aqueous reagents on contact, skipping any surfactant rinse while trapping bacteria reliably at its sterilizing-grade pore rating and tolerates aliphatic alcohols, glycols, and aqueous buffers. Polypropylene construction resists chemical degradation from routine sample matrices while holding its seal true run after run and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. For workflows requiring validated sterile-grade performance, point-of-use retention meets it without a separate sterilization step.
Membrane Characteristics
- Sterilizing-grade PES membrane lots are challenge-tested against Brevundimonas diminuta to qualify 0.2 micron retention
- Ionic extractables from the membrane stay very low
- Sulfone backbone's hydrolytic stability tolerates repeated autoclave steam sterilization cycles
- Non-hydrogen-bonding surface avoids the polar adsorption nylon's amide backbone causes
- Compatibility spans both nucleic acid and protein-based filtration
Housing Characteristics
- Withstands standard 121°C steam autoclave cycles without softening or structural distortion
- The seal formed against the membrane blocks bypass at rated operating pressure
- Plasticizer-free polyolefin construction keeps the fluid path clean
- Polypropylene housing tolerates dilute aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols used in routine sample prep
Juggling several filter types for one routine clarification eats up your bench time. General-purpose aqueous filtration supports the sample types you handle every day across your water-analysis and general analytical workflows.
