Poly(vinylidene fluoride)-based ion-track membranes with asymmetrical pores
We have been working on ion-track membranes of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) because they have attracted a renewed interest for their applications to fuelcells [1]. There were two main conclusions: (i) The PVDF ion-track membranes can efficiently be prepared under milder etching conditions, i.e., without any oxidant additives in the alkaline etching solution [2]; and (ii) irradiation with io...
متن کاملElectron microscopic observation of domain movement in reconstituted erythrocyte membranes.
The movement of labeled concanavalin A (Con A) receptors in reconstituted human erythrocyte membranes was observed directly in an electron microscope, using an environmental stage that kept the sample fully hydrated at all experimental temperatures. Human erythrocyte membrane ghosts were spread on the air/water interface in a Langmuir trough. The surface monolayer film contained most native pro...
متن کاملLarge-scale polymeric carbon nanotube membranes with sub–1.27-nm pores
We report the first characterization study of commercial prototype carbon nanotube (CNT) membranes consisting of sub-1.27-nm-diameter CNTs traversing a large-area nonporous polysulfone film. The membranes show rejection of NaCl and MgSO4 at higher ionic strengths than have previously been reported in CNT membranes, and specific size selectivity for analytes with diameters below 1.24 nm. The CNT...
متن کاملNuclear pores and nuclear assembly.
Communication between the nucleus and cytoplasm occurs through large macromolecular structures, the nuclear pores. Quantitative scanning transmission electron microscopy has estimated the mass of a nuclear pore to be 60 million Daltons in yeast and 120 million Daltons in vertebrates. The past two years were noteworthy in that they saw: 1) the purification of both the yeast and vertebrate nuclea...
متن کاملThe Size of Pores in Collodion Membranes
By the application of Poiseuille's law to the rate of flow of water through collodion membranes, it is calculated that the membranes used had pore radii of the order of 0.3 to 2 x 10(-6) cm. On the same basis the number of pores per sq. cm. appears to vary from 270 x 10(10) to 7 x 10(10), decreasing with increase in pore size. Reasons are given for preferring these figures for the radii to figu...
