Grade 603 Standard Cellulose Extraction Thimble, 33x60mm, Thickness 1.5mm, 25/Pk SKU: 10350238

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 10350238

Quantitative recovery of extractable organic compounds from soil, food, and industrial matrices depends on a thimble that retains the sample while allowing unrestricted solvent circulation. In addition, produced under Whatman's established manufacturing platform, this device reflects the consistency and lot-level documentation that analytical laboratories require. Cotton linter cellulose processed under controlled conditions delivers the fiber purity and structural uniformity that validated extraction methods require. Consequently, dependable extraction performance across diverse sample types reduces method variability and supports confident analytical decision-making in routine and regulated applications.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• High-purity alpha cellulose cotton linter construction delivers excellent mechanical strength and low extractable background for demanding analytical extraction workflows.
• Cellulose fiber construction provides a cost-effective extraction medium for high-volume laboratories processing large numbers of routine fat, oil, and residue samples.
• Low ash content supports accurate weight-based analytical determinations where thimble-derived residues could compromise measurement precision.
• Controlled fiber density promotes efficient solvent permeation while retaining solid sample material within the thimble body during repeated extraction cycles.
• Uniform wall construction maintains consistent solvent flow distribution across the thimble surface, preventing channeling that could reduce extraction efficiency.

When your extraction results need to withstand regulatory scrutiny, the quality of your consumables matters as much as the quality of your technique. Here, uniform wall construction and rapid solvent wetting reduce your per-sample preparation time while maintaining the quantitative recovery your analytical methods demand. Standardize on Whatman filtration to bring the consistency and documented performance of a century-old filtration brand to your laboratory workflows.
