VectaSpin 3 centrifuge filters are supplied with a range of filtration and separation media. The VectaSpin 3centrifuge filters are 3 mL volume and are produced from pigment free polypropylene to eliminate sample contamination. A 10 µm mesh is available for the filtration of coarse particulates, they are also available with a range of ultrafiltration membranes which can separate macromolecules, such as proteins, based on differences in their molecular weights.
The centrifuge filters are compatible with all common centrifuge rotors and holders. Filtrate can be stored in the receiving tube after centrifugation eliminating the need for a separate storage tube.
VectaSpin™ 3  Features and Benefits 3 mL sample capacity is ideal for many laboratory samples Store filtrate in receiving tube, reducing costs and saving time in the laboratory Frosted area on tube for easy sample identification Applications HPLC sample preparation Biotechnology and life science Environmental research Removal of microspheres in aqueous solution Filtration of river waters Protein separation from sample matrices
Typical Data - VectaSpin Centrifuge Filters   VectaSpin 3 Housing (Pigment Free) Polypropylene Insert Capacity 3 mL Receiving Tube Capacity With Insert 5 mL Receiving Tube Capacity Without Insert 10 mL Maximum Force 5,000 G* Tube Dimensions 87 mm x 16.4 mm Cap Material Polypropylene Minimum Force for RCF (Polypropylene 0.45 µm) 2,000 G  Temperature Resistance In Use +4º C to +40º C Temperature Resistance for Sample Storage  (Without Filter Insert) -70º C to +50º C Insert Material Polypropylene Overall Height 86 mm * Do not use at centrifugal forces above the recommended maximum The Polysulfone membrane contains glycerin as a wetting agent.  This may be removed if necessary by pre-rinsing with distilled water or buffers.  Transparent spots may appear on filters under higher levels of humidity.  These are due to the glycerin and do not affect performance of the filter.
