Whatman Puradisc Water-Wettable PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.2 µm, 13 mm, 100/Pk - 6772-1302
Whatman applies over a century of filtration media expertise, manufacturing under the quality standards that established its products as global laboratory references. Across analytical workflows, the syringe filter is where particulates leave the sample stream. The hydrophilic PTFE membrane achieves bacterial retention at the rated pore size while handling both aqueous buffers and organic solvents and accepts aqueous samples without pre-wetting. Polypropylene construction maintains housing integrity through the filtration run while keeping the fluid path low in extractable contamination and stays inert across common laboratory solvents. Where analytical results depend on clean samples, syringe filtration removes particulates at the moment of preparation.
Technical Specifications
- Chemically inert to aggressive organic solvents, strong acids, and alkalis
- Low protein binding preserves dilute analytes for maximum recovery
- Sterile-grade retention at sub-micron pore sizes
- Universal compatibility across aqueous buffers and organic solvents
- Absolute pore-size rating gives consistent retention across protocols
Housing Specifications
- Tough polypropylene body tolerates repeated handling at the bench
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Stable across the full aqueous pH range in routine sample work
Reproducible separations start with samples that reach the column free of particulates. Pre-injection filtration protects the resolution your methods depend on so your retention times and peak shapes stay consistent. Review our Chemical Compatibility Chart, or ask technical service to confirm chemical compatibility for your specific application.
