چکیده

Mesoporous templated MCM-48 silica was prepared using a C16 surfactant as template. The MCM-48 powders and thin films were characterized by different techniques. Two types of porous supports were used, namely macroporous α-alumina and silicon microsieves. The supported MCM-48 layers were applied as liquid permeable membranes in pressure-driven nanofiltration and electric field-mediated ion transport experiments.

A glance into the bulk of solvent polymeric pH membranes*

The pH-sensitive chromoionophores brought the dream of the ion-selective membrane scientist close to realization. With the help of these molecules, one can build pH-sensitive, ion-selective electrodes and look into the bulk of solvent polymeric membranes during potentiometric measurements (spectropotentiometry) and image concentration profiles in situ with high spatial and temporal resolution. ...

Bimodal Pore Size Mesoporous Mcm-48 Prepared by Post-synthesis Alumination

Synthesis of mesoporous materials with a bimodal pore size has always been of great importance for size-selective separation process. Especially, ordered mesoporous cubic MCM-48 with its highly interwoven and branched pore structure, is a potential separation material in applications similar to which zeolites are now being used. This material could have specific technological advantages because...

Optical detection of ion-channel-induced proton transport in supported phospholipid bilayers.

The integration of ion-channel transport functions with responses derived from nanostructured and nanoporous silica mesophase materials is demonstrated. Patterned thin-film mesophases consisting of alternating hydrophilic nanoporous regions and hydrophobic nanostructured regions allow for spatially localized proton transport via selective dimerization of gramicidin in lipid bilayers formed on t...

Artificially modified magnetic anisotropy in interconnected nanowire networks.

Interconnected or crossed magnetic nanowire networks have been fabricated by electrodeposition into a polycarbonate template with crossed cylindrical nanopores oriented ±30° with respect to the surface normal. Tailor-made nanoporous polymer membranes have been designed by performing a double energetic heavy ion irradiation with fixed incidence angles. The Ni and Ni/NiFe nanowire networks have b...

Overproduction of Thermus sp. Strain T2 beta-galactosidase in Escherichia coli and preparation by using tailor-made metal chelate supports.

A novel thermostable chimeric beta-galactosidase was constructed by fusing a poly-His tag to the N-terminal region of the beta-galactosidase from Thermus sp. strain T2 to facilitate its overexpression in Escherichia coli and its purification by immobilized metal-ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). The poly-His tag fusion did not affect the activation, kinetic parameters, and stability of the be...
