Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF)
Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF)
PVDF is a hydrophilic membrane that is suitable for most general biological sample filtration. It has a broad chemical compatibility and is a low protein binder and so a good choice where high protein recovery is required.
Use with: Alcohols, weak acids, proteins, peptides and other bio molecules
Don't use with: Some strong acids, bases(eg: NaOH), esters, ethers or ketones.
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 biological filtration, filtration of samples for high protein recovery.
