sterile filtration

Sterile filtration is a process used to remove bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms from liquids, such as medicines or beverages, to ensure they are safe and free from contaminants. It involves passing the liquid through a specialized filter with very tiny pores that trap these microorganisms while allowing the liquid to flow through. This method is commonly used when heat sterilization isn't suitable, helping maintain the product's integrity while ensuring safety. It’s an essential step in producing products that require high levels of cleanliness and safety, like intravenous drugs or sterile drinks.
