Polyethersulfone (PES) Syringe Filters - SF14498

Featuring advanced polyethersulfone membrane technology optimized for clarification applications in small-volume sample processing. Compact 13mm format delivers efficient particulate removal while preserving valuable biological components in limited-quantity samples requiring reliable clarification performance. Tisch Scientific combines hydrophilic PES membranes with robust polypropylene housing to ensure consistent filtration results across pharmaceutical quality control, cell culture, and analytical sample preparation workflows.

Key Polyethersulfone (PES) Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally hydrophilic membrane providing instant wet-out without pre-treatment
• Clarification-grade 0.45µm pore size removes cells, debris, and particulates
• Ultra-low protein binding preserves sample integrity and biological activity
• Membrane thickness of 100-160µm, ensuring consistent retention characteristics
• Broad chemical compatibility supporting aqueous and mild organic solutions

Key Construction Characteristics

• Compact 13mm diameter design optimized for precious small-volume samples
• Integrated PP prefilter enhances throughput and protects the primary membrane
• Minimal holdup volume of 10µL, maximizing recovery of valuable materials
• Universal Luer-Lok/Luer Slip connectivity accommodating all syringe types

SF14498 syringe filters maintain optimal flow rates of 14.5ml through a 1.09cm² active filtration area, perfectly scaled for your small-volume clarification needs while maximizing processing efficiency. A bubble point of 31.91psi validates membrane integrity for applications requiring documented performance in regulated environments. Autoclave sterilization at 121°C for 30 minutes or gamma irradiation protocols provide flexible contamination control options to meet your laboratory's specific requirements while maintaining operational capability up to 60°C.
