Hydrophilic Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Syringe Filters, 0.2µm, 25mm - 6773-2502
For critical applications requiring absolute sterility assurance, the Hydrophilic Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Whatman Puradisc™ Syringe Filter, 25mm, 0.2µm, 200/pk series provides a verified barrier against bacterial contamination. Driving this efficiency is the integration of a hydrophobic Hydrophilic Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane, ensuring high recovery of sensitive samples while maintaining a sterile effluent. Designed to facilitate rapid processing, the housing features an optimized flow geometry that minimizes backpressure, allowing for easier manual filtration even with viscous samples. Ultimately, this rigorous attention to manufacturing quality ensures batch-to-batch reproducibility, allowing laboratories to standardize their workflows with total confidence.
