Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters - SF18081
Advanced 0.1μm PTFE membrane technology with hydrophilic surface modification delivers absolute mycoplasma retention through validated 29psi bubble point specifications, ensuring complete submicron particle removal for critical small-volume applications. Compact 13mm diameter platform provides 1.09cm² precision filtration area optimized for small to medium-volume processing up to 10ml capacity with controlled 3ml flow rates for efficient sample handling. Small-volume mycoplasma removal applications in pharmaceutical development, biotechnology research, and clinical diagnostics demand immediate-use capability through ready-to-use sterile packaging eliminating contamination risks. Quality validation protocols confirm membrane integrity through rigorous bubble point testing ensuring absolute 0.1μm retention, while 10μL minimal holdup volume specifications ensure maximum recovery in small-volume workflows where sample conservation and mycoplasma-free assurance are critical operational priorities.
