Nylon
Nylon
Nylon membranes are extremely low in extractables and mechanically very strong. They possess good thermal stability up to 50°C and are a good all-round filter for HPLC samples. Naturally hydrophilic membrane that provides broad compatibility with aqueous and organic samples.
Use with: Bases, Most HPLC solvents, Alcohols, Aromatic Hydrocarbons, THF and other organic solvents.
Don't use with: Acids, Aggressive Halogenated hydrocarbons, protein samples (Nylon is a high protein binder)
Sterilisation: Syringe filters can be sterilised by autoclave at 125° for 20 minutes. Disposable filter kits and bottle top filters come in sterile packaging.
Applications: General Laboratory filtration, most HPLC samples.
