Cellulose Soxhlet Extraction Thimble, Single 1 mm Wall, 30x80mm (25 pcs) SKU: 2800-308

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 2800-308

Gravimetric fat determination and pesticide residue workflows require an extraction thimble that combines high sample retention with minimal background contamination. As a Whatman product, this device carries the brand recognition and documented performance history that supports specification in standardized analytical methods. Seamless cellulose construction with a smooth interior surface minimizes sample adhesion and promotes complete recovery of extracted analytes from the thimble walls. By design, engineered sample containment and solvent permeability work together to maximize extraction efficiency while protecting the integrity of downstream analytical determinations.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Uniform wall construction maintains consistent solvent flow distribution across the thimble surface, preventing channeling that could reduce extraction efficiency.
• Cellulose construction provides a cost-effective sample containment solution for high-throughput laboratories processing large extraction batch volumes.
• Cellulose fiber construction provides a cost-effective extraction medium for high-volume laboratories processing large numbers of routine fat, oil, and residue samples.
• Natural cellulose fiber composition enables rapid solvent wetting without pre-conditioning, reducing setup time for routine extraction procedures.
• 80 mm height configuration optimized for standard Soxhlet extractor geometry with proper clearance above the siphon level.

Whether you are running routine quality control extractions or method-critical environmental analysis, your thimble selection directly influences result reliability. In practice, precise dimensional fit within standard Soxhlet apparatus ensures efficient solvent cycling through your samples, maximizing analyte recovery in every extraction run. Integrate Whatman filtration into your protocols to benefit from the brand recognition, lot documentation, and performance history that analytical laboratories trust worldwide.
