These filters also remove aerosol-born pathogens—germs that literally hitch a ride on larger particles and liquid droplets that are captured in a HEPA or ULPA filter.

HEPA- or ULPA-based Fan/Filter Units (FFUs) thus can play an important role in infection prevention in surgical theaters, ICUs and other medical settings. Here is a list of common human pathogens that HEPA/ULPA filters capture and remove from circulation:
