Millipore SteriVex PVDF Filter Unit .45 µm (sterivex45)

The Millipore SteriVex PVDF Filter Unit .45 µm has more than double the filtering surface area of normal syringe filters making it capable of processing 3 times the volume while requiring significantly less pressure to operate.

Sterivex filter units work with syringes, peristaltic pumps or pressure vessels. They eliminate the risk of contamination associated with decanting or pipetting and are designed to dispense into virtually any storage container. These Sterivex units have a male Luer-lok outlets that accept any normal needle.

This product comes individually packaged and presterilized.

you need .22 for filtering gear. price is a little too high for me

.45um work fine for most injectibles, its just not going to meet USP standards to be considered "human grade"

Since when do we only use human grade? lol yeah right

exactly... but i run high doses 400mg-500mg and the .22 seems ALOT harder.... so i was gonna try the .45

.22 is nice for tren a at 100mg/ml but cyp's and undec at high concentration, seems alot harder... and its 3x more volume, also the filter is rated at 2000ml's vs the normal one at 100ml... on its own website
