A 2 micron filter, like the USA Lab Qualitative Filter Paper - Slow 2um Micron, is designed to remove particles larger than 2 micrometers. While effective for filtering out larger particulate matter and some bacteria, it will not capture smaller bacteria, most viruses, or dissolved substances. This type of filter is commonly used in laboratory settings for separating solids from liquids and clarifying solutions, ensuring that larger contaminants are removed while allowing finer particles and molecules to pass through.
