Description
Glass microfibre filter grade MG 160 is a binder-free glass microfibre medium intended for analytical and gravimetric work as well as for use as a prefilter in laboratory filtration setups. The open fibrous structure supports efficient particle retention and high loading capacity, making the grade suitable when samples must be clarified before finer membrane steps or when solids are determined by weight. Supplied in packs of 50 pieces, the filters arrive ready for routine bench use in quality-control, environmental and research laboratories. With a net weight of 0,012 kg per pack, handling and storage remain straightforward under normal room conditions. These MG 160 filters from manufacturer Sartorius fit standard filtration workflows where binder-free glass fibre is preferred to avoid organic binder interference in sensitive assays. Typical applications include sample preparation ahead of instrumental analysis, clarification of aqueous suspensions and protective prefiltration of membranes. The non-sterile format is appropriate for general laboratory procedures that do not require aseptic media. Consistent grade designation MG 160 helps laboratories standardise methods across batches while maintaining the performance profile expected of binder-free glass microfibre media in analytical and gravimetric protocols.

Questions about Glass Microfiber filters MG 160
What is this article?
Glass Microfiber filters MG 160 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Sartorius for laboratory use. It sits in Glass & quartz fibre filters, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
Glass-fibre and quartz-fibre filters are depth filters with a high dirt load, used for air sampling, for total suspended solids and in front of a membrane. They have no sharp pore-size cutoff the way a membrane does. Binderless grades matter when the filter will be weighed or heated.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
