Is there a potential that filtering the sample is removing larger size pollutants that might be important to know?
That's a question that only the user can answer, but no individual molecules are filtered out by a 0.2 micron filter unless they simply stick to the filter. The pores are sized to remove things like whole bacteria and chunks of detritus.
