Applications |
Tissue culture & HPLC. Compatible with DMSO. Extra chemical compatibility & low protein binding. Choose 0.2µm pore size for non-sterile filtration and ultra cleaning; 0.45µm for particle removal and clarification |
Tissue culture. High throughput/flow rate. Choose 0.2µm pore size for sterile filtration and ultra cleaning. 0.45µm for particle removal and clarification |
Tissue culture. Lowest protein binding. Choose 0.2µm pore size for sterile filtration and ultra cleaning. 0.45µm for particle removal and clarification; and 0.8µm for coarse particle removal |
Tissue culture and HPLC. Low extractable, naturally hydrophillic. Choose 0.2µm pore size for sterile filtration and ultra cleaning. 0.4µm for particle removal and clarification |
HPLC. Most aggressive solvents. Choose 0.2µm pore size for sterile filtration and ultra cleaning. 0.4µm for particle removal and clarification |

Syringe filters with high burst strength for assured performance. Manufactured to ISO 9002 and GMP standard and 100% integrity tested.
Syringe filter sizes include 4, 15, 25, or 26 mm diameter to handle volumes ranging from 0.5 to 100 ml. The 50 mm diameter PTFE syringe filter are ideal for protecting the vacuum line and pump. These disposable filter units are ideal for tissue culture media, buffer solution, stain solution, biological fluids and most other aqueous solutions and reagents that are used daily in the EM lab.
Pore size and membrane type are printed on every syringe and the filters are certified non-cytotoxic and non-pyrogenic. Syringe filters are individually blister-wrapped in cases of 50. The 50 mm PTFE syringe filter is supplied in a case of 12.
