Watch this amazing race—Samplicity™ System vs. the Syringe!
How fast can you filter samples? If you think you can beat the speed of the Samplicity™ filtration system with syringe filters, watch this race and reconsider. With the Samplicity™ system, you may never struggle with syringe filters again.
Filtration speed of the Samplicity system depends on the viscosity of the sample. Samples were filtered through 0.45 µm hydrophilic PTFE Millex Samplicity filters using the Samplicity filtration system.

Overall time savings using Samplicity filtration system compared to syringe filtration. To compare the speed of the Samplicity system compared to syringe filtration, either four or eight 1.0 mL samples of 1% Pepto-Bismol were filtered by 15 timed users, either through hydrophilic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Millex syringe filters with a 10 mL syringe, or through 0.45 µm hydrophilic PTFE Millex Samplicity membrane filters using the Samplicity filtration system.
Pre-launch Device Disclaimer: The information presented is based on preliminary development results. Device performance in specific applications may be different.
The Samplicity Filtration system enables higher yields for small sample volumes: low holdup volume enables you to do more analyses with each precious sample.
