Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Syringe Filters - SF18259

Biopharmaceutical laboratories often struggle with mycoplasma contamination in cell culture media. Hydrophilic PVDF syringe filters with a 0.1 µm pore size provide a critical barrier against these ultrafine organisms. The naturally wettable membrane allows for the immediate processing of aqueous fluids without alcohol pre-wetting. A 25mm housing handles volumes up to 100 mL efficiently. An integrated polypropylene prefilter prevents premature clogging by capturing larger debris first. Validated sterile packaging ensures that the unit remains contamination-free for use in sensitive aseptic environments. Researchers rely on this tight pore structure for absolute sterility assurance.

Key Hydrophilic PVDF Membrane Characteristics

Naturally wettable hydrophilic surface eliminates methanol or isopropanol pre-wetting steps, enabling immediate aqueous sample filtration
0.1 µm pore size provides superior bacterial retention, including Mycoplasma removal, for the protection of critical cell cultures
Low protein-binding characteristics minimize the adsorption of biomolecules to preserve concentration in dilute samples
Broad chemical compatibility allows for the safe filtration of various solvents, acids, and bases without degradation
Sterile packaging eliminates initial contamination risks for sensitive analytical samples to support quality assurance requirements

Key Construction Characteristics

Integrated polypropylene prefilter captures coarse particulates upstream of the primary membrane to extend filter lifetime
100 µL holdup volume minimizes loss of valuable pharmaceutical compounds and biological materials optimizing yield
Polypropylene housing delivers structural integrity to 87 psi maximum operating pressure with thermal stability to 60°C
Dual Luer-Lok and Luer-Slip connections accommodate standard syringes without adapters streamlining aseptic transfer procedures

Achieve absolute sterility in your cell culture workflows with a filter engineered for mycoplasma removal. You can process complex biological solutions confidently knowing the prefilter extends membrane capacity. The low-binding hydrophilic chemistry ensures maximum recovery of valuable therapeutic proteins. Secure Luer-Lok connections prevent hazardous leaks when filtering critical fluids under pressure. Rely on gamma-sterilized packaging to maintain aseptic conditions throughout your quality control workflows. The consistent 0.1 µm pore size protects your most valuable cell lines from submicron bacterial infection.
