A device for separating biological materials, such as yeast, in particular a yeast separating device, has an encapsulated sieve, a supply pipe for impure biological material, a sieve (16) for separating the impure biological material, in particular yeast, into pure micro-organisms such as yeast that fall through the sieve (16), and into impurities that are carried away from the sieve (16) into a discharge device (20), the pure screened biological materials being conveyed into a collecting device (21). The device also has a housing for enclosing the sieve in sterile conditions and means for generating an overpressure in the housing by means of a sterile gas. The housing of the sieve (16) is a trough-like sieve support (15) in which the sieve is secured with outlets for purified biological material, waste and if required gas, as well as a lid that covers the trough-shaped sieve support. Fluid supply holes (17) are arranged in the walls of the trough-like sieve support (15). |
