Acrodisc Syringe Filters

Acrodisc is a trusted name in laboratory syringe filtration, engineered for clean, reliable sample preparation across analytical chemistry, HPLC, and general lab workflows. When you're filtering samples ahead of instrument analysis, the filter itself can't become a source of contamination or artifacts — and that's exactly the problem Acrodisc devices are built to solve.

These single-use syringe filters attach directly to a standard Luer-lock or slip-tip syringe, letting you clarify or sterilize small liquid volumes without decanting, vacuum setups, or extra hardware. Buyers typically weigh three things: membrane material, pore size, and diameter. Membrane chemistry matters because it determines solvent compatibility and how much analyte binds to the filter — options across the Acrodisc range span PTFE and nylon for aggressive organic solvents, PVDF and PES for low protein binding, and GHP for broad HPLC use. Pore sizes commonly run 0.2 µm for sterilization and fine particulate removal or 0.45 µm for general clarification, while filter diameter (often 13 mm or 25 mm) is chosen to match your sample volume and minimize hold-up.

For chromatographers, low extractables and certified cleanliness are the real selling points — protecting column life and keeping baselines clean. For clinical and QC labs, sterility and lot consistency drive the decision. Acrodisc filters are known for reproducible construction and validated performance, which is why they remain a lab-bench standard for HPLC vial prep, protein and biological sample handling, and environmental testing.
