Some nanoparticle solutions can't be filtered by traditional means. They'll either conglomerate and fall out of the colloidal phase our slip right through the filter.

 

Could this be what you are talking about?

so in the laboratory, is there something called an ultrafilter? or something that performs this kind of task?

Yes, the process is ultrafiltration. abbreviated "UF". You'll often see it mentioned together with diafiltration, abbreviated "DF", or together as "UF/DF" (say "uff duff"). I never worked with it myself, but I've had coworkers who did. Wikipedia can probably tell you more about it than I can.
