H2 separation using pressed clinoptilolite and mixed copper-clinoptilolite disk membranes
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-03)
Disk membranes machined from high-purity natural clinoptilolite rocks demonstrated promising hydrogen separation efficiency. However, these membranes cannot be adequately scaled up. To overcome this and provide process ...
Probing Thermotropic Phase Behavior of Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine Bilayers from Electrical and Topographic Data in a Horizontal Black Lipid Membrane Model
(American Chemical Society, 2020-02)
Here, a homemade device allowed preparing horizontal lipid bilayer membranes (hBLMs) for recording electrical and topographical data simultaneously and in real-time, under temperature (T)-controlled conditions along a ...
New findings on Simalikalactone D, an antimalarial compound from Quassia amara L. (Simaroubaceae)
(Elsevier, 2012)
Quassia amara L. (Simaroubaceae) is a species widely used as tonic and is claimed to be an efficient antimalarial all over the Northern part of the Amazon basin. Quassinoid compound Simalikalactone D (SkD) has been shown ...
Control of membrane lipid homeostasis by lipid-bilayer associated sensors: A mechanism conserved from bacteria to humans
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-10)
The lipid composition of biological membranes is key for cell viability. Nevertheless, and despite their central role in cell function, our understanding of membrane physiology continues to lag behind most other aspects ...
The performance of a C2N membrane for heavy metal ions removal from water under external electric field
(Elsevier, 2022)
Using molecular dynamic simulations, the performance of carbon nitride (C2N) was studied for the separation of Cu2+ and Hg2+ as heavy metal ions from water. The high porosity of the single layer C2N nanosheet in comparison ...
Coupled response of membrane hydration with oscillating metabolism in live cells: An alternative way to modulate structural aspects of biological membranes?
(MDPI AG, 2019-11)
We propose that active metabolic processes may regulate structural changes in biological membranes via the physical state of cell water. This proposition is based on recent results obtained from our group in yeast cells ...
Membrane composition of jetted lipid vesicles: A Raman spectroscopy study
(Wiley VCH Verlag, 2012-01)
Microfluidic jetting is a promising method to produce giant unilamellar phospholipid vesicles for mimicking living cells in biomedical studies. We have investigated the chemical composition of membranes of vesicles prepared ...
High activated carbon loading mixed matrix membranes for gas separations
(Springer, 2012-04)
Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) containing highest amounts of activated carbon (AC) reported to date were prepared for gas separation. A polymeric phase of semicrystalline polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was loaded with different ...
