MicroScience Glass Fibre depth filters are manufactured with very fine borosilicate glass fibres, offering high filtration efficiency, fast flow rates and high dirt holding capacity. The range of glass fibre filters is non-hydroscopic and biologically inert. MicroScience Glass Fibre filters are compatible with a broad range of solvents and reagents and can be used in applications to 500°C.
