Product Details
The kit includes grade A fine porosity glass microfiber filters made from 100% borosilicate glass microfiber, which contain no binders or strengthening agents. These filters feature a fast flow rate and a particle retention size of 1.6 µm, making them frequently used in the filtration of precipitated proteins and cells. They are particularly well-suited for use in radioimmunoassay applications for weak beta emitters through scintillation counting, as well as for gravimetric determination of airborne particulates. The depth filtration process used in these filters traps particulate matter within the random matrix of fibers present in the media's thickness, leading to an efficiency rating that reflects the complex void space structure created by the overlapping fibers. The smooth and uniform fibers contribute to the filters' high flow rates, while also allowing for the retention of exceptionally small particles and providing a high load capacity.
