Millipore Millex-GV Syringe Filter Unit Sterile 0.22 um Pack of 247 Filters

The Millipore SLGV033RB Millex-GV Syringe Filter Unit is a sterile, disposable filter designed for the efficient filtration of aqueous solutions. This filter has a 33 mm diameter and utilizes a PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) membrane with a 0.22 µm pore size.

The 0.22 µm pore size is the industry standard for sterilizing filtration, as it effectively removes bacteria and other microorganisms from liquids. The Durapore (PVDF) membrane is a key feature, known for its high flow rates, low extractables, and very low protein binding characteristics, making it ideal for filtering sensitive biological samples like protein solutions and cell culture media.

The Millex-GV unit is designed to be attached to a syringe, allowing for manual filtration of volumes up to 100 ml. Being sterile and disposable, it eliminates the need for cleaning and minimizes the risk of cross-contamination, making it an essential tool for sample preparation for chromatography (e.g., HPLC), sterilization of buffers, and general laboratory clarification.
