Syringe filters.......

[FriarFuckk]

Does anyone know if there is a way a 25mm GD/X syringe filter can be reused after you filter through it?

THANKS

I know the answer is yes, I just can't remember how to do it. Animal is the guy who wrote about it.

Here ya go:

Animal: *GMF filters are resistant to weakening or disruption of the fibrous matrix by inorganic or organic solutions and has a broad chemical compatibility. Made of borosilicate glass microfibers. Presterilized by Gamma radiation. Typical chararcteristics: Filter 25mm GD/X, membrane GMF, Prefilter GMF 150 (10:1) and GF/F (0.7mm), Autoclavable at 121C (250F), 15PSI, for 20 min, max temp 131C (267F)

Now why mention all that? Well, if you mess up your filter you can run some methanol through it to clear it which is then basically sterile, but if you are a stickler, you wrap the filter in a piece of aluminum foil and throw it into your oven at 250F for 20min and it's good as new again.
