Phase Separation UNIFILTER

The Phase Separation plate allows for a quick separation of halogenated solvents from an aqueous phase, with no carryover and no close manual contact. The plate consists of a 2 ml, 96 well, rigid glass-filled polypropylene body. It has long drip directors to ensure accurate dispensing of the filtrate. Whatman 1PS media is sealed into each well.

Whatman 1PS is a silicone-treated medium which remains impervious to aqueous solvents but allows the unimpeded passage of organic solvents. Providing that the solvent layer is in contact with the 1PS, the organic solvent layer will drain under gravity until the aqueous interface is reached, when flow will stop automatically. If subsequent harvesting of the aqueous layer is required, a vacuum can then be applied to collect this layer.
