Definition
filtration process in which a membrane filter that is used has pore size in the range of 0.001 to 0.01 μm
Examples
- A nanofiltration process is used to remove endotoxins while allowing most proteins to pass through; A nanofiltration process concentrates therapeutic peptides while separating out small salts and solvents; A nanofiltration process is applied after viral inactivation to clear potential viral contaminants; A nanofiltration process is used to reduce water content and impurities in antibiotic purification;
Primitive Class
This class is declared primitive and it does not have necessary and sufficient condiftions defined.
Primitive Rationale
Insufficient constructs are present to create a set of necessary and sufficient conditions
Formal Axioms
First-Order Logic Axioms
