A filter and method for removing selected materials from a biological fluid sample are provided. The filter comprises an outer housing, inlet, and outlet. A plurality of filter surfaces are provided within the outer housing, and at least one coating is applied to the filter surfaces. The at least one coating comprises at least two binding modules that are in turn selectively bound to one another. One binding module is selectively bound to the filter surfaces and another binding module is configured to bind selectively to the selected materials that are to be removed from the fluid sample. As the fluid sample is allowed to pass through the inlet, outer housing, and outlet, the selected materials are selectively bound to the filter surfaces via the coating, thus producing a filtered product at the outlet.
