| filter | 1. A porous substance through which a liquid or gas is passed in order to separate it from contained particulate matter or impurities. Synonym: filtrum. 2. To use or to subject to the action of a filter. 3. In diagnostic or therapeutic radiology, a plate made of one or more metals such as aluminum and copper that, placed in the x-or gamma-ray beam, permits passage of a greater proportion of higher energy radiation and attenuation of lower and less desirable energy radiation, raising the average energy or hardening the beam. 4. A device used in spectrophotometric analysis to isolate a segment of the spectrum. 5. A mathematical algorithm applied to image data for the purpose of enhancing image quality, usually by suppression of high spatial frequency noise. Origin: Mediev. L. Filtro, pp. -atus, to strain through felt, fr. Filtrum, felt (05 Mar 2000) |

| filth | 1. Foul matter; anything that soils or defiles; dirt; nastiness. 2. Anything that sullies or defiles the moral character; corruption; pollution. "To purify the soul from the dross and filth of sensual delights. <medicine>" (Tillotson) Filth disease, a disease supposed to be due to pollution of the soil or water. Origin: OE. Filthe, fuloe, AS.

| filtrable virus | <virology> Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites of living but noncellular nature, consisting of DNA or RNA and a protein coat. They range in diameter from 20-300nm. Class I viruses (Baltimore classification) have double stranded DNA as their genome. Class II have a single stranded DNA genome. Class III have a double stranded RNA genome. Class IV have a positive single stranded RNA genome, the genome itself acting as mRNA. Class V have a negative single stranded RNA genome used as a template for mRNA synthesis. Class VI have a positive single stranded RNA genome but with a DNA intermediate not only in replication but also in mRNA synthesis. The majority of viruses are recognised by the diseases they cause in plants, animals and prokaryotes. Viruses of prokaryotes are known as bacteriophages. (13 Oct 1997) |

| filtration | The passage of a liquid through a filter, accomplished by gravity, pressure or vacuum (suction). (18 Nov 1997) |
| filtration angle | The acute angle between the iris and the cornea at the periphery of the anterior chamber of the eye. Synonym: angulus iridocornealis, angle of iris, angulus iridis, filtration angle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| filtration coefficient | A measure of a membrane's permeability to water; specifically, the volume of fluid filtered in unit time through a unit area of membrane per unit pressure difference, taking into account both hydraulic and osmotic pressures. (05 Mar 2000) |
