VWR® Grade 696 Glass Fiber Filters
Manufacturer: VWR International
VWR® Grade 696 Glass Fiber Filters are engineered for demanding environmental monitoring and sensitive biochemical applications. Manufactured from binder-free borosilicate glass microfibers, these filters provide a chemically inert matrix that prevents sample contamination and ensures optimal analytical results. With a fine 1.2 µm pore size, they offer an exceptional balance of fast flow rates and high-loading capacity, making them the preferred choice for filtering high concentrations of particulates in seawater, wastewater, and biological fluids.

Choose VWR® Grade 696 Glass Fiber Filters for a fast, reliable, and high-capacity solution for all your demanding filtration needs.
Features:
- The binder-free construction ensures consistent, low-background results, making Grade 696 specifically recommended for monitoring sensitive pollutants like mercury where high extractables could compromise data
- Specifically designed for filtering seawater particulates and suspended solids due to its high resistance to aggressive saline environments
- The deep, three-dimensional matrix of glass fibers allows the filter to process significantly more sample volume before clogging compared to traditional cellulose papers
- Widely utilized in Radioimmunoassay (RIA) procedures and for the efficient harvesting of lymphocytes and other cell cultures
- Fast flow rates significantly reduce filtration time, even when handling viscous or particulate-heavy samples
Application & Care Guidelines:
- Handling: Glass fiber filters are delicate. Always use flat-tipped forceps to handle the edges to prevent tearing or compromising the fiber matrix
- Vacuum Filtration: For best results, use with a vacuum filtration setup. Ensure the filter is centered and slightly wetted with a small amount of ultra-pure water or buffer before applying full vacuum to create an even seal
- Pre-Cleaning: For trace-level analysis (e.g., heavy metals), it is recommended to pre-rinse the filter with a dilute acid or the sample solvent to remove any potential trace atmospheric contaminants
