Recuperative parametric pumping in adsorptive membranes

Recuperative Parametric Pumping in Adsorptive Membranes

Recuperative parametric pumping in adsorptive membranes, a cyclical adsorptive separation process, can lead to two distinct mechanisms of separation: rejection and preferential transport. During rejection, the adsorptive membrane rejects an adsorbing solute while permitting the transport of nonadsorbing solutes. During preferential transport the reverse occurs; the adsorptive membrane selective...

adsorptive immobilization of microsomal membranes

in this article, the immobilization of microsomal membranes on fractosil and hexadecylfractosil by hydrophobic adsorption is reported. microsomes were prepared from rat brain and thecatalytic activity of antimycin a insensitive nadh-cytochrome c reductase (nccr), one of themembrane bound enzymes in the microsomal electron transport chain, was chosen as a representative ofthe microsomal membrane...

Selective extraction using preferential transport through adsorptive membranes.

Selective extraction of a protein from a mixture can be accomplished using an adsorptive membrane and low displacement recuperative parametric pumping. Low displacement recuperative parametric pumping can lead to the preferential transport of an adsorbing solute and the rejection of nonadsorbing solutes by the adsorptive membrane. Using a protein mixture consisting of lysozyme and myoglobin, we...

Adsorptive Interactions between Membranes and Trace Contaminants

Widespread occurrences of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in waterways have attracted a great attention of the scientific community. While scientific evidence associated with human health is restricted due to the long-term effects, impacts of EDCs on trout at the common concentration encountered in sewage effluent have been confirmed by both in vitro and in vivo studies. The impacts of st...
