Filter used for the separation of small colloidal particles. For instance, it is employed to concentrate protein solutions during the preparation of enzymes. The filter consists of a flat plate or tubular membrane with semipermeable properties, through which the filtrate passes under pressure or suction. It is also used for removing bacteria from water or other solutions, thus making them sterile.
