Hydrophilic membrane compatible with a wide variety of solvents
- Useful for a wide range of applications, aggressive and non-aggressive solvent-based mobile phase.
- Reduces experimental variables. HPLC certified for low levels of UV-absorbing extractables.
- Protects columns and instrumentation against particulate build up.
- 13 mm device with minispike configuration offers low hold up and easy filtration into autosampler vials.
- Offers excellent chemical compatibility, even with aggressive acids and alcohols.
- Not recommended for acetone, DMF, DMSO, or bases > 6 N.
- 25 mm Acrodisc PSF syringe filter is available in robotic-compatible AutoPack™ packaging for Caliper* ,TPW*, APW*,and Multi-Dose* systems, and Sotax* dissolution systems.
- New 0.2 µm Acrodisc syringe filters are optimized for UHPLC sample preparation.
