Price Mistake? Pall Ap-4302 Acrodisc Syringe Filters With Ptfe Membrane - Gxf/0.45 µm, 25mm (1000/pkg) Eco-friendly [fNuTzWLD]

Syringe filters are used in analytical chemistry applications to remove particulate contamination prior to analysis. Filtering a sample prior to sample injection into analytical instrumentation will help protect sensitive parts of the instrument from particulate build-up and reduce system downtime. Sample filtration using syringe filters containing 0.45 μm (HPLC) or 0.2 μm (UHPLC) pore size membranes will also extend the life of chromatography columns by preventing particulate from blocking the flow path between the column packing.

PTFE membrane is highly chemically compatible for the filtration of harsh solvents that can destroy other membrane materials. PTFE is a hydrophobic membrane, so it will repel water and is not suitable for the filtration of aqueous solutions.

As well as being suitable for the filtration of organic solvents in applications such as HPLC and UHPLC sample preparation, the hydrophobic nature of the PTFE membrane makes these syringe filters ideal to use in gas filtration or as a moisture barrier in venting applications.

The GxF/PTFE membrane configuration features a a GxF multi-layer glass fiber prefilter, providing two to four times the throughput of standard prefilter devices. The multi-layer prefilter captures particulate rated from > 40 to 1 μm.
