Is a PES filter fine to use with a low amount (10ml) of a 0.9% BA solution??

Nylon is fine if you have all day to sit and wait for it to filter. Drip drip drip....
That's a very good question Jet. I was speaking of a membrane in either a bottle top filter or glass filtration set up.. I didn't think about a capsule filter. If that's the case me and you both know now nylon works just fine. However Even when using a capsule filter like lets just say a whatman polycap 36as vs the 36tf witch is a PTFE membrane your final throughput will be a extra 3 to 5000ml. Would you agree?Are you speaking in regards to syringe, bottle top or capsule filters?
Sounds like your just making bact water... PES should be ok. Now if you start adding solvents (like BB, EO, or Guaiacol), definitely get a better filter.Is a PES filter fine to use with a low amount (10ml) of a 0.9% BA solution??
Thank you. I have just decided to purchase quality hydrophilic PVDFs. Maybe some nylons every now and then. Might as well use the best.Sounds like your just making bact water... PES should be ok. Now if you start adding solvents (like BB, EO, or Guaiacol), definitely get a better filter.
Distilled water w a little BA in it is gonna run thru the filter so fast it won't break down anyway.
Nylon has always bn easier to source for me
If you're going to be making BAC water it will work with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic membrane. Now if you're talking about filtering oil you should definitely use a hydrophobic PVDF or PTFE membrane. I'll put a link below for both PVDF and PTFE membranes.Amazon “brand” okay or do you recommend something like Whatson?
The last one should be .22 not .45. Not great .45If you're going to be making BAC water it will work with a hydrophobic or hydrophilic membrane.
