Recommended filters for controlling both air and water pollution and as a pre-filter for Membrane
MS® Glass fiber filters are manufactured from 100% borosilicate glass. These depth filters combine fast flow rate with
high loading capacity and retention of fine particulates. The small diameter fibers give glass fiber filter media superior
efficiency and dirt holding as compared to cellulose and synthetic media.
Features

Binder glass fiber: Grade GF 6, Grade GF 8,Grade GF 9,Grade GF 10
Grade GF A
l Thicker than GF A with higher wet strength and significantly increased loading capacity , Suitable for filtration
of large volumes
l Pre-filter for membranes
l Filtration of suspended solids in water/waste water analysis
Grade GF C
l The standard filter in many parts of the world for the collection of suspended solids in potable water and natural
and industrial wastes
l Widely used for cell harvesting, liquid scintillation counting and binding assays where more loading capacity is
required
Grade GF D
Grade GF F
l GF F is the material upon which the EPA Method TCLP 1311 for Toxicity
l Use for filtering extremely fine precipitates such as protein, nucleic acids, or serum precipitates
Grade GF H
Grade GF 6
l Suitable for very fine particles
l Removing protein from difficult-to-filter beers
l Determination of filterable substances and the residue on ignition (dry weight)
l Analysis of aggressive media
Grade GF 8 and Grade GF 9
Grade GF 10
