Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Filters, 2.0µm, 47mm - SF18116
Reducing background noise in analytical assays begins with proper clarification, and the Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Membrane Filters is engineered to remove interfering solids efficiently. Driving this clarification performance is a hydrophobic Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane featuring a verified 2.0 pore structure that captures target particulates while minimizing holdup volume. To ensure experimental consistency, the high-quality material provides uniform flow and predictable retention rates across the entire surface area. The result is a filtration solution manufactured in an ISO-certified facility that minimizes distinct interference, providing clean baselines for publication-quality data.
