PALL AP-4548 Acrodisc PSF Syringe Filters with Nylon Membrane - GxF/0.45 µm, AutoPack tubes (25/pkg 200/cs)

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.

Nylon syringe filters can be used for both aqueous and solvent-based sample filtration applications and show excellent chemical compatibility with esters, bases and alcohols. However, it should be noted that nylon syringe filters are not recommended for sample fluids which are strongly acidic.

The GxF/Nylon 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.
