Frequently Asked Questions
What porosity is the integrated filter?
Each column includes a medium-porosity filter rated 45-90 microns, suitable for retaining most chromatography resins while allowing reliable gravity flow of aqueous buffers.
Are these columns sterile?
No. These are supplied non-sterile, 200 per bag. If your protocol requires sterility, sanitize or autoclave per your facility's validated procedure, noting polystyrene's temperature limitations.
What is the column made from?
The column body is molded polystyrene (PS). Confirm compatibility with your solvents before use, as polystyrene is not recommended for aggressive organic solvents.
How are the columns packaged?
Columns ship 200 per bag (SKU 208-3367-050). Each bag is lot-numbered to support traceability requirements in accredited laboratory environments.
