Syringe filter is a small, disposable device that is commonly used in laboratory settings to filter or clarify fluids. It is designed to be attached to the end of a syringe and acts as a barrier that removes particles and contaminants from the fluid as it is forced through the filter.
Syringe filters typically consist of a plastic housing with a membrane filter inside. The housing has a female luer lock or luer slip connection that allows it to be securely attached to the syringe. The membrane filter, which is the key component, is made of a porous material that allows the fluid to pass through while retaining particles and contaminants above a certain size.
