CellPro™ Syringe Filters, 50/Pack STERILE are available in a variety of sizes and membrane types, and consist of a plastic housing with a membrane that filters fluids. They are designed for both sterile and non-sterile laboratory applications, and the filter is designed to accommodate fluid pressed through a syringe.
- Sterile — individually wrapped and 50/Pack
- Membranes made of Polyethersulfone (PES) or Polyvinylidenflouride (PVDF)
- Non-Sterile PVDF and PES Syringe Filters can be sterilized by autoclave at 125°C for 15 minutes
- Ultrasonic Welded • 25mm Filter Diameter for volumes between 10-100mL• Filter Inlet: Luer Lock Female, Filter Outlet: Luer Male
- Maximum operating pressure for 25mm is 7Bar, recommended to use syringe sizes of 3mL or larger
- Pore Size of 0.20 µm optimal for sterile filtration or 0.45 µm optimal for thorough cleaning
PVDF, Polyvinylideneflouride Characteristics:
Hydrophilic membrane with good solvent resistance. Low UV absorbing extractables and low non-specific binding Applications: PVDF is used for general biological filtration, and filtration of samples where high protein recovery is desired. It has slight hydrophilic properties and can be used for clear filtration and sterilization of aqueous solutions
PES, Polyethersulfone Characteristics:
High flow rates with good throughput volume. Low protein binding. Compatible with high temperature liquids. Mechanically strong membrane low in extractable ions.
Applications:
PES is certified for ion chromatography, tissue culture filtration, filtration of proteins and nucleic acids. Polyethersulfone membranes are hydrophilic and have low protein adorption.
They are primarily used for aqueous or partially organic media (pH 2-12) in pharmaceutical and biological sample preparation. Please give customer service a call if you need assistance determining the ability of PES or PVDF to withstand exposure to a particular solvent.
