Nitrogen-doped carbon (CN) materials unique ability to adsorb phenol in a non-coplanar configuration, coupled with the weak interaction between the generated cyclohexanone and the support, effectively ...

Membranes, which support a wide swath of upstream and downstream bioprocessing, have evolved along with biopharma’s needs for throughput, timeliness, and quality. A recent paper by Andrew Zydney, PhD, ...

Tangential flow filtration (TFF) is a useful method for separating molecules or particles in liquid solution by size and enables both concentration and the ability to change buffer composition. 1 TFF ...

(Nanowerk News) Flow-through reactors packed with enzymes can produce certain chemicals in a gentle and careful way. However, their performance has so far been limited. A research team from the ...

A preclinical study from the University of Vermont has linked excessive activity of the mechanosensor Piezo1 in brain blood ...

Prof. Hong Xu's team in Tsinghua University reports a substrate-assisted interfacial polymerization approach to easily prepare a uniform, large-area, and microcontinuous 3D-COF membrane, and ...

Membranes represent a significant portion of the final costs of redox flow batteries (RFB) used in energy storage systems. It is therefore important to identify the membrane technologies that could ...
