چکیده

Amphiphilic Janus dendrimers containing first through third generation (G1-G3) photodegradable hydrophobic blocks were synthesized and their self-assembly in water was studied. While the G1 and G2 systems formed solid aggregates, the G3 system self-assembled to form dendrimersomes. These dendrimersomes were demonstrated to degrade upon irradiation with UV light, and exhibited triggered release of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic payloads.

CO2 biofixation by Dunaliella Salina in batch and semi-continuous cultivations, using hydrophobic and hydrophilic poly ethylene (PE) hollow fiber membrane photobioreactors

In this work, performance of hollow fiber membrane photobioreactor (HFMPB) on the growth of Dunaliella Salina (G26) at various aeration rates (0.1 and 0.2 VVm) and medium re-circulation flow rates (500 and 1000 mL/h) were studied. Cultivation was carried out at both batch and semi-continuous modes in HFMPBs containing neat and hydrophilized in-house fabricated poly ethylene (PE) membranes at fi...

Adsorption of Fluconazole Drug on Silica Aerogel‌ by Immersion Method and Investigation of the Rate and Mechanism of Drug Release

In this study, adsorption of fluconazole on silica aerogel was performed successfully by the immersion method in the 1% solution of fluconazole-ethanol at the ambient condition and without using the supercritical method. The hydrophobic and hydrophilic silica aerogels were synthesized by the two-stage sol-gel method and dried at the ambient temperature. This method had most of drug loading at 2...

Anti-fouling behaviors of surface functionalized high density polyethylene membrane in microfiltration of bovine serum albumin protein

An essential characteristic for high performance inherently hydrophobic membranes such as microporous high density polyethylene (HDPE) membranes is to have a hydrophilic surface. In this project, wet chemical functionalization as a facile and effective method was developed to give a hydrophilic property to HDPE membranes using polar functional groups. KClO3, K2Cr2O7 and KMnO4 were selected as o...
