Millex Samplicity PTFE Filters
Built on over 40 years of membrane expertise, Millex Samplicity™ filters were designed with the best, most versatile membrane for filtering chromatography samples—our hydrophilic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filters retain >95% of particulate impurities. This PTFE membrane is compatible with aqueous and organic solvents, minimizes extractables and binding of analytes. Millex Samplicity™ filters have a unique funnel shape for easy pipette loading and are provided in strips of four for faster loading. The filter strips are perforated for use with fewer samples.
- Low extractables from hydrophilic PTFE: broad chemical compatibility of hydrophilic PTFE means fewer leached impurities can contaminate the sample for downstream analysis.
- Low analyte binding: waste less sample during filtration so you can accurately quantitate low levels of analytes present in the sample.
Pre-washing Millex Samplicity Filters is easy.
If your application requires pre-washing filters prior to final filtration and analysis, a waste tray can be inserted into the Samplicity system to facilitate this step. When pre-washing filters using the Samplicity system, the waste tray is placed on the base in place of the vial tray and the solvent or sample is filtered through the Millex Samplicity filters using vacuum, similar to normal operation. Once the filters are pre-washed, the same filters would be used for sample filtration and collection into vials.
