Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SPEC18226

Pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories require compact sterile gross prefiltration for small-volume highly turbid samples where space constraints and contamination control both drive equipment selection. Advanced 5.0µm PVDF membrane technology delivers ready-to-use gross prefiltration with exceptional chemical resistance and gamma-irradiated sterile integrity. Hydrophobic construction in space-efficient 20mm ABS housing with threaded double luer lock provides contamination-free coarse particle removal for viscous formulations, environmental samples, and chemical processing where compact design and broad solvent compatibility enable analytical success.

Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics

• Hydrophobic surface requires alcohol pre-wetting before aqueous processing, activating the membrane for proper flow and preventing channeling that compromises filtration efficiency
• Outstanding chemical stability withstands acetonitrile, methanol, chlorinated solvents, and aggressive organic reagents that rapidly compromise cellulosic and polyamide membrane alternatives
• 5.0µm pore size provides gross prefiltration for heavily particulate samples, removing large debris that would rapidly clog finer membranes in your multi-stage workflows
• Ultra-low protein binding affinity maintains biomolecule concentrations during coarse prefiltration, preventing adsorptive losses that compromise recovery in your biological sample preparation protocols
• Temperature tolerance to 80°C supports elevated-temperature sample processing while maintaining chemical compatibility across diverse pharmaceutical and chemical laboratory applications

Key Construction Characteristics

• ABS housing offers chemical resistance to common organic solvents while providing mechanical durability for manual filtration operations in routine sample preparation
• Threaded double luer lock connection creates secure, leak-proof attachment to syringes and tubing systems, preventing sample loss during processing workflows
• 72.5psi maximum operating pressure accommodates manual syringe filtration and integration with low-pressure pumping systems for automated sample preparation
• Sterile gamma-irradiated packaging delivers contamination-free gross prefiltration without requiring autoclave sterilization, streamlining workflows in pharmaceutical and biotechnology cleanroom environments

Built to support your space-constrained workflows where heavily turbid samples require sterile gross prefiltration without consuming excessive bench area. PVDF's exceptional chemical versatility handles the challenging matrices your laboratory processes. Sterile individually-wrapped units maintain your contamination control protocols while delivering the solvent resistance and gross prefiltration capacity that protect downstream equipment, extend fine filter life, and ensure consistent sample preparation across demanding pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and chemical applications where compact sterile operation determines processing success.
