Description

High-particulate, challenging sample filtration: Whatman GD/X filters


Filter even the most difficult samples and use less hand pressure with GD/X syringe filters.

  • Exceptional loading capacity and fast flow rates – prevents back pressure and clogging of membrane
  • Graduated microfiber prefilter from 1 μm to 0.7 μm
  • Higher flow rates (3×) compared to unprotected membranes
  • Uses glass microfiber-based prefilters

For metals testing and other applications where glass-based compounds could interfere with analysis, we offer a related syringe filter (GD/XP), which uses polypropylene prefilters.

Whatman GD/X Syringe filters contain several filtration layers that substantially reduce blockage and increase volume throughput.
