Hydrophilic PVDF Syringe Filters, 0.1um, 33mm, Luer-Lok/Luer Slip, Sterile, 100/Pk SKU: SF18052

Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SF18052

Featuring hydrophilic PVDF membrane technology with 0.1µm pore size engineered for mycoplasma removal in cell culture and biopharmaceutical applications. Naturally wettable surface eliminates pre-wetting protocols, enabling immediate aqueous sample processing with low protein binding characteristics. Integrated polypropylene prefilter extends operational life when filtering high-particulate biological samples. Robust polypropylene housing withstands pressures up to 87psi while maintaining thermal stability to 60°C.

Key Hydrophilic PVDF Membrane Characteristics

• Naturally wettable surface enables immediate aqueous filtration without alcohol pre-wetting protocols
• 0.1µm pore size removes mycoplasma and submicron particles for critical cell culture contamination control
• Low protein binding maintains the concentration of therapeutic proteins and enzymes during filtration
• Chemical compatibility resists degradation from biological buffers and mild acids in pharmaceutical environments
• Sterile packaging eliminates contamination risks for aseptic processing, supporting GMP manufacturing

Key Construction Characteristics

• Large 33mm diameter provides 4.9cm² filtration area supporting processing volumes exceeding 100ml
• Integrated polypropylene prefilter extends membrane lifetime by capturing larger particulates upstream
• Low 100µL holdup volume minimizes loss of valuable pharmaceutical compounds and biological materials
• Dual Luer-Lok and Luer-Slip connections accommodate standard syringes, streamlining aseptic procedures

SF18052 filters deliver validated mycoplasma removal for cell culture and biopharmaceutical workflows. The hydrophilic PVDF membrane enables rapid aqueous processing while maintaining low protein binding essential for therapeutic protein manufacturing. Built for biotechnology laboratories, this sterile solution provides submicron contamination control with 4.9cm² filtration area supporting efficient processing of biological samples.
