A sterile filter is a device used to remove microorganisms and foreign particles.
Its operating principle involves removing microorganisms and foreign particles through holes smaller than them. In the medical field, it is used for sterilizing injectable drugs and intravenous fluids, ensuring patient safety. In the food industry, it is utilized for sterilizing beverages, condiments, and food ingredients, enhancing product safety and quality. In the chemical industry, it plays a role in sterilizing raw materials and products in semiconductor manufacturing and pharmaceutical production, improving product quality.
There are two mechanisms: depth filtration and surface filtration, which are selected based on the size of microorganisms and foreign particles. Its characteristic is high versatility, allowing efficient removal of microorganisms and foreign particles. When using a sterile filter, it is important to select the appropriate filter for the application and perform regular replacements.
