Cellulose Soxhlet Extraction Thimble, Single 1 mm Wall, 33x118mm (25 pcs) SKU: 2800-331

Cellulose Extraction Thimble - 2800-331

Pharmaceutical raw material testing and food quality analysis protocols specify extraction thimbles that provide documented purity and consistent mechanical performance across every unit. With a commitment to quality, manufactured by Whatman under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, this device benefits from a filtration heritage that spans laboratory, environmental, and industrial applications. Alpha cellulose fiber composition ensures minimal ash content and low extractable residues, supporting accurate gravimetric and chromatographic downstream analysis. To this end, uniform construction quality delivers the reproducible performance that standardized extraction methods require for defensible analytical reporting.

Key Thimble Characteristics

• Cotton linter cellulose processed for low ash content minimizes background interference in gravimetric determinations and downstream chromatographic analysis.
• 118 mm height configuration optimized for standard Soxhlet extractor geometry with proper clearance above the siphon level.
• Cellulose construction provides a cost-effective sample containment solution for high-throughput laboratories processing large extraction batch volumes.
• Low ash content supports accurate weight-based analytical determinations where thimble-derived residues could compromise measurement precision.
• Mechanical strength sufficient to maintain structural integrity when saturated with solvent and loaded with sample, even during extended multi-hour extraction cycles.

Your analytical confidence starts with an extraction thimble that performs consistently from the first sample to the last in every batch. Cost-effective cellulose construction paired with dependable retention performance supports your high-volume extraction throughput without compromising analytical data quality. Integrate Whatman filtration into your protocols to benefit from the brand recognition, lot documentation, and performance history that analytical laboratories trust worldwide.
