Silver/polycarbonate filters merit testing for virus-bacteria separation; leaves open clinical adoption pending validation studies.
Silver and polycarbonate filters are promising tools for separating viruses from contaminating bacteria and fungi, as their permeability is determined by pore size rather than electrostatic forces.
Hahn et al. (1970) studied this question.
