Featuring hydrophilic PTFE membrane technology with 0.1µm pore size engineered for mycoplasma removal and critical sterile filtration applications. Surface-modified fluoropolymer chemistry eliminates pre-wetting requirements, enabling immediate aqueous sample processing with absolute submicron retention. Integrated polypropylene prefilter extends operational life when filtering high-particulate biological samples. Robust polypropylene housing withstands pressures up to 87psi while maintaining thermal stability to 60°C for demanding laboratory workflows.
Key Hydrophilic PTFE Membrane Characteristics- Absolute 0.1µm retention provides complete mycoplasma removal and sterile filtration capabilities
- Hydrophilic surface modification eliminates alcohol pre-wetting protocols for immediate aqueous processing
- Low protein binding preserves sensitive biomolecules and therapeutic proteins during filtration
- Broad chemical compatibility resists degradation from analytical solvents and biological buffers
- Membrane thickness of 80-140µm balances structural integrity with efficient 12ml flow rate performance
- Large 33mm diameter provides 4.6cm² filtration area supporting processing volumes up to 110ml
- Integrated polypropylene prefilter extends membrane lifetime by capturing particulate loads before sterile stage
- Low 100µL holdup volume minimizes sample loss, maximizing recovery of precious analytical specimens
- Dual Luer-Lok/Luer-Slip connections accommodate all standard laboratory syringe configurations
SF18075 filters deliver validated mycoplasma removal for demanding biotechnology and pharmaceutical workflows. The hydrophilic PTFE membrane enables immediate aqueous sample processing while the integrated prefilter protects the 0.1µm stage from premature fouling. Built for high-volume sterile filtration, this solution provides reliable submicron retention with low protein binding characteristics essential for therapeutic protein manufacturing and cell culture applications.
