If filtration successfully separates bacteria from bacteriophages, the results would indicate that the bacteriophages pass through the filter while the bacteria are retained. This can be verified by culturing the bacteria (which should not grow if the filter removed all of them) and observing whether the bacteriophages continue to exhibit infectivity.
