Chromatography system

An end cell for a chromatography column has a moulded plastics structure and an integral screen formed of a woven mesh of fibres of the same plastic material as used for the end cell. A peripheral ring of the same plastics material is injection moulded to the perimeter of the mesh, said ring being secured to the end cell in a leak-proof manner, preferably by ultrasonic welding.
