A filtration assembly for filtering nanoparticles includes a filter having pores that can retain nanoparticles likely to be found in an air flow passing through the filter and a filter support including two parts. A lower base-forming part of the filter support includes a peripheral bearing surface on which the filter can rest. An upper ring-shaped part of the filter support is designed to be mounted around the bearing surface of the base. By mounting the ring around the bearing surface of the base it is possible to tension the filter radially to the direction of mounting. The mounting clearance between the ring and the bearing surface of the base is dimensioned such as to maintain the filter resting on the bearing surface under mechanical stress by means of pinching, in a direction radial to the mounting direction.

The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 8, wherein the one or more plastic material(s) of the upper ring-shaped part and of the lower cylindrical base include one or a plurality of additives. 10. The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the annular bearing surface of the lower cylindrical base projects for a distance h of between 10 and 1500 μm in relation to the upper ring-shaped part in the mounted position. 11. The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the planar support constitutes the bottom of an accommodating throat for the upper ring-shaped part in the lower cylindrical base in the mounted position. 12. The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the mounting clearance between the upper ring-shaped part and the annular bearing surface of the lower cylindrical base is between 50 and 250 μm. 13. The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 1, wherein the lower cylindrical base has a periphery including an identification area on which an identification label of the filter may be arranged. 14. The filtration assembly as claimed in claim 13, wherein the identification label is selected from the group consisting of an alphanumeric code, a bidimensional code, of the data matrix type and an electronic chip. 15. A method of collection and analysis of nanoparticles according to which the following stages are carried out: providing the filtration assembly as claimed in claim 1;aspirating an air flow that is likely to be charged with nanoparticles across the tensioned filter of the filtration assembly;introducing the filtration assembly into a fluorescence spectrometer X; andanalyzing, by X-ray fluorescence, the nanoparticles retained by the filter. 16.
