Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Filters, 5.0µm, 13mm - SF15128
Reducing background noise in analytical assays begins with proper clarification, and the Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Filters, 5.0um, 13mm, Nonsterile, 200/pk is engineered to remove interfering solids efficiently. To ensure analytical precision, the unit is constructed with a high-grade Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane providing a consistent 5.0 cutoff that passes only your target analyte. Delivered as precision-cut discs, these membranes ensure compatibility with all standard filter holders and funnels. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.
Key Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Characteristics
