TCP Libra : Exploring RTT-Fairness for TCP

Apparatus for performing laboratory vacuum filtration having a removable filter element is disclosed. The removable element comprises a porous disc having a groove formed in its periphery. The apparatus includes a funnel which has a cylindrically shaped upper wall and the porous disc is held within the wall of the funnel by an O-ring. The O-ring may further be used to hold a filter medium such as filter paper onto the porous disc. The filter apparatus further utilizes an elastomeric stopper which fits into the neck of a bottle or other filtrate container.
