Whatman GD/XP Syringe Filters – Prefilter
Cytiva's Whatman GD/XP disposable syringe filter, a modification of the GD/X line, uses a polypropylene prefilter stack, making GD/XP suitable for samples that require inorganic ion analysis.
- Incorporates a two-layer polypropylene prefilter stack rather than a multi-layer glass fiber stack to minimize levels of ion extractables
- Extremely low protein binding syringe filter
- High loading volume for filtration of challenging sample
- Recyclable after use.
Disposable syringe filter for trace metal analysis
Because of their high purity and minimal ion extractables, GD/XP syringe filters are recommended for analyzing ion content that would otherwise experience interference from glass-based extractables. For example, GD/XP is used for trace metal analysis, particularly ion analysis using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).
GD/XP syringe filter with integrated prefilter
The Whatman GD/XP disposable syringe filter from Cytiva's business has several different membrane material options. These include:
- Nylon
- Polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF)
- Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
- Polypropylene – membrane or depth filter media
- Polyethersulfone (PES)
