The primary mechanism of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is inhibition of prostaglandin production mediated by cyclooxygenase. Given the possible association of cyclooxygenase-2, but not cyclooxygenase-1, with membrane lipid rafts, we...
Traditional thermal concentration processes for LiCl, such as multi-effect evaporation and mechanical vapor recompression (MVR), suffer from drawbacks including high energy consumption and severe equipment corrosion. However, electrodialysis (ED) tec...
Chitosan biopolymer membranes reinforced with channel-selective ZIF-8 nanofillers were developed and thoroughly characterized as separators for bioelectrochemical systems. This study explores the synergistic effect of incorporating ZIF-8 into a chito...
Direct Contact Membrane Distillation–Crystallization (DCMD-Cr) is a synergistic technology for zero liquid discharge (ZLD) and resource recovery from high-salinity brines. In this study, DCMD-Cr was integrated to desalinate real oilfield-produc...
Novel blend membranes containing S-PVA and PEBAX 1657 at a blend ratio of 8:2 were doped with varying amounts of titanium dioxide phosphate (TiO2PO4) as a nanoparticle filler at concentrations of 0, 3, 5, and 7 wt%. The membranes were fabricated usin...
Myelin is a lipid-rich membrane that insulates axons, providing support and ensuring efficient nerve impulse conduction. Disruption of this sheath, or demyelination, impairs neural transmission and underlies symptoms like vision loss and muscle weakn...
Ion concentration polarization (ICP) is a promising electrokinetic technique for the concentration and separation of nanoparticles in microfluidic systems. In this study, we investigated how key parameters, including Nafion membrane thickness, applie...
The inherent hydrophobicity of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) ultrafiltration membranes leads to severe membrane fouling when processing proteinaceous solutions and organic contaminants, significantly limiting their practical applications. This stu...
Membrane separation is an effective means of separating 1,3-propanediol (1,3-PD) from fermentation broth. However, systematic studies on membrane fouling behavior during this process are still limited. Therefore, this study systematically analyzed th...
Zeolites and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline porous materials characterized by highly ordered pore structures. Their fabrication into membranes has demonstrated significant potential for use in separation processes involving liq...
