Exceptional Chemical and Temperature Compatibility
- Acrodisc PSF syringe filters are Zymark* and SOTAX* Automation Certified to assure smooth operation
and worry-free performance 24 hours a day in automated workstations.
- Ideal for filtration of gas and/or organic solvents.
- Prevents spurious peaks on chromatograms for accurate experimental results. HPLC certified for low
levels of UV-absorbing extractables.
- Prevents "air bubble" lock when filling sample vials with 13 mm minispike outlet.
- 4 mm device offers the lowest sample hold-up (< 10 ¥ìL) and is useful for samples up to 2 mL in volume.
