Description

General description

Filter Code: FGLP

Filter Type: Screen filter

Our Fluoropore^® membrane is a hydrophobic, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) polymer membrane bonded to a high density polyethylene support to improve the handling characteristics of the filter for normal applications. Fluoropore membranes provide broad chemical compatibility, high flow rates and consistency. (Please note that catalogue numbers containing "FHUP" are unlaminated, or produced without a backing.) Our Omnipore membrane is a hydrophilic PTFE membrane that is compatible with virually all solvents, acids, and alkaline solutions.

Application

0.22 µm pore size, hydrophobic PTFE, 37 mm membrane

• Fluoropore Membrane: Clarifying Acids, Bases and Solvents; Air Monitoring; Filtering and Venting Gases; UV Spectroscopy
• Omnipore Membrane: Filtration of Aqueous Solutions, Clarifying Acids and Alkaline Solution

Features and Benefits

• Biologically and chemically inert
• High porosity yields high flow rates
• Hydrophobic and hydrophilic PTFE varieties available for filtration of aqueous and organic-based samples

Packaging

100 filters

Other Notes

Directions for Use

• Organism Retention: Microorganism
• Mode of Action: Filtration (size exclusion)
• Application: General laboratory filtration
• Intended Use: Retention or removal of biological contaminants
• Instructions for Use: Sterilizing filtration of a liquid through a membrane with a 0.2 μm (or smaller) pore size effectively removes biological contaminants, including bacteria, mold and yeast
• Storage Statement: Store in dry location
• Disposal Statement: Dispose of in accordance with applicable federal, state and local regulations.
