Hydrophilic PVDF Syringe Filters, 0.45um, 13mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: SF17396

Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SF17396

Hydrophilic PVDF syringe filters streamline aqueous sample preparation by eliminating the need for time-consuming pre-wetting steps. Researchers relying on this naturally wettable membrane chemistry achieve high protein recovery rates essential for sensitive biological assays. The 0.45 µm pore size efficiently clarifies solutions to remove particulates without altering critical chemical compositions. A compact 13mm polypropylene housing complements these filtration dynamics by minimizing holdup volume to just 10 µL.

Key Hydrophilic PVDF Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally wettable surface eliminates alcohol pre-wetting requirements for aqueous processing, enabling immediate filtration of biological samples without preparatory solvent steps
• 0.45 µm pore size delivers reliable particulate removal for sample clarification in chromatography and biological assay workflows without providing sterile-grade filtration
• Low protein binding affinity preserves biomolecule concentration during analytical sample preparation, minimizing adsorption losses in pharmaceutical and biotechnology testing
• Chemical compatibility resists degradation from biological buffers and mild acids while maintaining stable operation across analytical chemistry applications
• Autoclave compatibility at 121°C with gamma sterilization capability provides contamination control options for sensitive biological and pharmaceutical laboratory applications

Key Construction Characteristics

• 10 µL holdup volume optimizes yield by reducing sample retention within the housing, preserving valuable biological extracts and analytical compounds in low-volume workflows
• Polypropylene housing provides structural integrity to 87 psi maximum operating pressure with thermal stability to 60°C, ensuring reliable performance across laboratory conditions
• Dual Luer-Lok and Luer-Slip connections accommodate standard laboratory syringes without adapters, streamlining workflow integration into existing analytical instrument configurations
• Single-layer membrane design without a prefilter provides direct filtration for clean aqueous samples, reducing holdup volume and maximizing sample recovery

Maximize your laboratory throughput by integrating these naturally wettable filters into your daily analytical routines. You can process critical biological samples with confidence knowing the membrane resists binding essential proteins. Secure Luer-Lok connections prevent hazardous leaks while ensuring compatibility with your existing syringe inventory. Choose a filtration solution that protects column life and ensures consistent, high-quality data generation.
