The objective of the present invention is to provide a method for effectively and easily reducing an amount of a specific impurity in a liquid. The method for reducing an amount of a nucleic acid in a liquid according to the present invention is characterized in comprising the steps of contacting the liquid with a water-insoluble magnesium compound to adsorb at least a part of the nucleic acid on the water-insoluble magnesium compound. Also, the objective of the present invention is to provide an adsorbing filter useful for purifying a useful substance, such as an antibody and an antibody-like molecule, used as a purification material for effectively removing an impurity with easily maintaining the yield of the target substance due to excellent adsorption ability to a nucleic acid and low adsorption ability to an antibody, an antibody-like molecule or the like. The adsorbing filter is characterized in comprising the layer comprising a water-insoluble magnesium compound.

When the porous ceramic structure contains Co together with Fe or Mn, the Co content is higher than or equal to 0.1 mass % and lower than or equal to 3.0 mass % in terms of Co.sub.3O.sub.4, and when the porous ceramic structure contains Co without containing Fe and Mn, the Co content is higher than or equal to 0.2 mass % and lower than or equal to 6.0 mass % in terms of Co.sub.3O.sub.4. The ratio of the sum of the Fe content in terms of Fe.sub.2O.sub.3, the Mn content in terms of Mn.sub.2O.sub.3, and the Co content in terms of Co.sub.3O.sub.4 to the Ce content in terms of CeO.sub.2 is higher than or equal to 0.8 and lower than or equal to 9.5.

An antimicrobial filter media, which includes a non-woven fabric; and an antimicrobial agent bound to the nonwoven fabric by a binder, the antimicrobial agent including silver sodium zirconium hydrogenphosphate and thiabendazole, and the silver sodium zirconium hydrogenphosphate and the thiabendazole are employed at a weight ratio of 1:1.5 to 1.5:1, to an air cleaner including the same, and to a process for preparing the same. The antimicrobial filter media includes silver sodium zirconium hydrogenphosphate and thiabendazole, as an antimicrobial agent, at a specific weight ratio. As a result, it is possible to effectively filter harmful microorganisms to supply purified air, to have excellent antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties at the same time, and to further enhance the durability and lifespan characteristics by virtue of excellent filter damage prevention effect.

A filter that includes a filter base portion having a first main surface and a second main surface opposite to the first main surface, the filter base portion defining multiple first through-holes and one or multiple second through-holes penetrating between the first main surface and the second main surface, the one or multiple second through-holes being larger in size than the multiple first through-holes. The filter base portion having a first region on a center side of a filter, a second region on an outer periphery side of the filter relative to the first region, and a third region between the second region and an outer periphery of the filter. The one or multiple second through-holes are in the second region, and a ratio of an opening area of the one or multiple second through-holes is less than a ratio of an opening area of the multiple first through-holes.

A fume extractor system and method for use with a 3D printer includes a system operable in three conditions including: continuously filtering particulates and fumes at high temperatures during a printing process without intentional removal of pressure from the print chamber; continuously filtering particulates at high temperatures during a print process with intentional removal of pressure from the print chamber, to keep noxious gases retained in the print chamber; and purging the print chamber of fumes and mixing in ambient air to cool the fumes to a temperature low enough to allow adsorption of the fumes created by the printer. The system has a first compartment holding a first filter assembly and a second compartment holding a second filter assembly.

A composite media alternative to high pressure drop glass microfiber HEPA media for use in applications where HEPA efficiency with an oily aerosol challenge with low resistance are required. The composite media contains two light filtration layers, one or both of which is charged, and the efficiency of the material can be greatly increased over a single layer containing the same weight of material. The composite media contains a backer layer to provide mechanical support to the filtration layers.

Disclosed here is a composite filter media having at least one nanofiber layer bonded to a substrate layer, the at least one nanofiber layer optionally having a plurality of nanofibers having a geometric mean diameter of less than or equal to 0.5 μm, the at least one nanofiber layer having a thickness of about 1-100 μm.

A filter medium according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a first support having a plurality of pores; a nanofiber web comprising nanofibers disposed on upper and lower portions of the first support and forming a three-dimensional network structure, and a hydrophilic coating layer formed on at least a part of an outer surface of the nanofibers, wherein the hydrophilic coating layer is formed of a hydrophilic coating composition comprising a hydrophilic polymer compound having at least one functional group selected from a hydroxyl group and a carboxyl group and a crosslinking agent comprising at least one sulfone group; and a second support having a plurality of pores interposed between the first support and the nanofiber web.

This disclosure relates to ultra-high performance diatomite products possessing very high silica specific volume, a characteristic which provides for high filtration performance, in terms of low unit consumption and long filtration cycle times. These novel products of this disclosure also show very low extractable metals for both the non-acid washed and the high purity (acid washed) grades. These characteristics are of particular value in the separation of solids from high purity liquids in electronic chemical, specialty beverage and life science applications. In addition to outstanding physical and chemical characteristics, these products also contain no detectable levels of cristobalite and have a wide range of permeabilities, and are produced from mineralogically impure ores containing high levels of alumina and iron oxide.
