Featuring a hydrophilic Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) membrane housed in an ultrasonic-welded acrylic body, these 25mm syringe filters deliver fast, efficient filtration of aqueous and organic solutions. The 0.22um pore size provides sterilizing-grade clarification of biological solutions while removing the contaminant size most likely to plug a UHPLC column, protecting downstream analytical results. Each filter is supplied sterile, individually blister-wrapped, and packed 50 per pack with Luer-Lok inlet and Luer Slip outlet connections.
Key PVDF Membrane Characteristics
- Hydrophilic: Naturally wets out with aqueous samples for consistent flow and recovery.
- Very low protein binding: Minimizes sample loss when filtering protein-containing solutions.
- Broad chemical compatibility: Withstands aggressive acids and alcohols as well as solvent-based mobile phases.
- Low extractables: Reduces background interference for sensitive analytical workflows.
- High flow rates and throughput: Speeds sample preparation across routine and demanding samples.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Housing: Modified acrylic body, ultrasonic welded to bidirectionally support the membrane.
- Connections: Luer-Lok inlet and Luer Slip outlet for secure, versatile syringe attachment.
- Membrane diameter: 25mm, providing 4.6 cm2 of effective filtration area.
- Maximum operating pressure: Up to 75 psi.
- Sterility and packaging: Sterile, individually wrapped in blister packs, 50 per pack.
Each unit is integrity tested to ensure a proper filter fit and weld, eliminating potential filter bypass. The lower hold-up volume and labeled housing support accurate identification and reliable recovery, helping maintain sample integrity from preparation through analysis.
