Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific is pleased to announce new membrane options in its family of Thermo Scientific Titan3 syringe filters. They complement existing solvent and sample compatibility choices by accommodating a wider range of application requirements.

The new options include 0.22µm and 0.45µm hydrophilic PTFE membranes in 17mm and 30mm syringe filter formats. They allow use of both organic and aqueous solvents without pre-wetting the membrane. This removes the need for multiple membranes and can reduce processing steps, helping users to simplify workflows.


Titan3 syringe filters are designed for clean, fast, robust and cost-effective sample extractions, resulting from low extractible membranes combined with an easy-to-use format and high burst pressures. They are used to extract valuable analytes from a wide variety of liquid matrices containing undissolved particulates prior to downstream analysis.

Adding a syringe filtration step prior to injection not only helps to ensure more consistent and reliable results; it also helps protect delicate instruments and prolongs column life. Available in sizes and membrane types to meet any application need, Thermo Scientific™ Titan3™ Syringe Filters provide cleaner sample extracts by removing interfering materials and fine particles down to the rated pore size. Titan3 Nylon Syringe Filters are a good choice for most general laboratory filtration, as well as filtration of most HPLC samples.Titan3™ Syringe Filters Features: Low extractable membranes and housings ensure that no filter-borne contaminants are added to your sample Performance-tested under actual HPLC conditions Integral 1mm borosilicate glass pre-filter (30mm devices) ensures greater confidence with high solids samples Reinforcing ring provides greater strength to the housing to prevent leakage and bursting (30mm products pressure rated to 120 psi) Housings are manufactured from solvent-resistant, low-extractable polypropylene resins specifically selected for wide compatibility with common HPLC sample matrices Able to filter solutions at temperatures up to 100˚C Color coding makes it easy to select the correct membrane and pore size Packed in re-usable rigid transparent color-coded containers Syringe filters can be sterilized by autoclave at 125˚C for 15 minutes Enhanced Luer lock inlet prevents leakage; outlet fitting is a standard size male Luer-slip fitting for ease of filtrate collection

Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.FiltrationFiltration and microfiltration are used to separate solids, particulates or large molecules from fluids (liquid or gases) in order to purify the filtrate. Explore a range of filter formats, including filter paper, plates and membranes for your separation needs. While larger particulates may be separated by gravity filtration, smaller particulates may require additional force for timely separation. Microfiltration equipment includes vacuum filters, as well as positive pressure, crossflow and centrifugal filtration devices.
