The Laboratory Microfilter Plates category includes the instruments, accessories and consumables needed to separate liquids, solids and dissolved components by differences in volatility, solubility, particle size, density or affinity. Selecting them as part of a complete workflow helps prevent compatibility problems that are easy to miss when individual items are considered separately.
Correct glassware geometry, membrane selection, vacuum level and chemical compatibility directly affect recovery, purity and processing time. A well-matched setup balances sample volume, chemical compatibility, temperature and vacuum conditions, and pore size or retention, helping the laboratory avoid unnecessary rework, difficult cleaning or premature replacement.
Most methods combine sample preparation with a selected separation mechanism, controlled transfer or heating, collection of the target fraction and cleaning between runs. When each stage is matched correctly, laboratories in chemistry, food, environmental, pharmaceutical, industrial and teaching laboratories can work more consistently and manage changeovers, replenishment and maintenance with fewer interruptions. As part of the Distillation, Separation & Filtration Equipment range, these products can be selected with the equipment and consumables used before and after this stage.
Our Laboratory Microfilter Plates range
Our collection covers using these plates with a vacuum manifold, applications for 96-well filter plates, gfff and gfn filters, and these plates for biological research, giving laboratories practical choices for routine work and more specialised applications.
Using These plates with a vacuum manifold
These 96-well filter plates are standard-sized and designed to be used with vacuum manifolds or in centrifuges equipped with microplate rotors for efficient liquid throughput. Selection should take account of sample volume, chemical compatibility, and temperature and vacuum conditions. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. In practice, this supports efforts to build a compatible separation train that protects recovery and reduces unnecessary transfers. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
Applications for 96-well filter plates
They are primarily used for high-throughput sample preparation, including DNA/RNA purification, protein precipitation, and removing particulates from samples before downstream analysis like HPLC. Selection should take account of chemical compatibility, temperature and vacuum conditions, and pore size or retention. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. In practice, this supports efforts to build a compatible separation train that protects recovery and reduces unnecessary transfers. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
GFFF and GFN filters
These refer to different grades of glass fibre filters used within the AHN Biotechnologie plates, offering varying degrees of particle retention and flow rates to accommodate different sample viscosities. Selection should take account of temperature and vacuum conditions, pore size or retention, and connection size. It is also worth checking cleaning, replacement and storage requirements before the item becomes part of a routine procedure. In practice, this supports efforts to build a compatible separation train that protects recovery and reduces unnecessary transfers. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
These plates for biological research
They are ideal for microplate-based assays and analytical workflows in both biological and chemical research, offering reliable performance for high-throughput discovery. Before ordering, compare pore size or retention, connection size, and separation principle. A product that fits the complete workflow will generally be easier to validate, maintain and reorder. In practice, this supports efforts to build a compatible separation train that protects recovery and reduces unnecessary transfers. It also gives staff a clearer and more repeatable procedure when multiple users or shifts share the same equipment.
