Overview
Acrodisc™ syringe filters with universal membrane, a Pall Life Sciences product, are chemically compatible with a wide variety of common solvents and are suitable for use in both aqueous and organic applications.
- Avoid the expense and inconvenience of keeping a variety of filters on hand. Versatile filter for aqueous and aggressive organic solvent-based solutions.
- Low protein binding membrane gives high recovery of critical proteinaceous samples.
- Accurate analysis. HPLC certified for low levels of UV-absorbing extractables.
- Easy filtration of particulate-laden samples with glass fiber prefilter version.
- 13 mm Acrodisc syringe filter with minispike configuration offers low hold-up and easy filtration into autosampler vials.
- Protects columns and instrumentation from particulate buildup better than other filters
