Grade 603 Standard Cellulose Extraction Thimble, 33x205mm, Thickness 1.5mm, 25/Pk SKU: 10350250

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 10350250

Laboratory workflows involving lipid extraction, feed analysis, and solid waste characterization depend on a sample vessel that maintains dimensional stability during prolonged solvent contact. Additionally, 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. Manufacturing quality controls ensure that each thimble meets the specifications required for validated extraction methods in environmental, food safety, and industrial laboratories.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Smooth interior wall surface promotes complete analyte transfer to the collection flask, minimizing sample loss from wall adhesion.
• Dimensional tolerances matched to DIN and BS standard Soxhlet extractors ensure proper fit with 1 to 2 mm clearance within the apparatus body.
• Cellulose fiber matrix enables rapid solvent wetting and efficient permeation without pre-conditioning steps, reducing total extraction preparation time.
• Seamless closed-bottom construction securely contains powdered, granular, and semi-solid sample materials without secondary containment requirements.
• Cellulose construction provides a cost-effective sample containment solution for high-throughput laboratories processing large extraction batch volumes.

Consistent thimble quality across every pack gives your laboratory the confidence to report extraction results without questioning the consumable. In response, pure cotton linter composition and smooth interior surfaces protect your downstream analytical instruments from particulate carryover and extractable contamination. Choose Whatman products to ensure that your filtration step meets the quality expectations established by one of the most recognized names in laboratory science.
