Most commercial anion exchange membranes (AEMs) deploy quaternary ammonium moieties. Alternative cation moieties have been explored in AEMs for fuel cells, but there are no studies focused examining alternative tethered cations ionic separations—such as organic acid transport via electrodialysis. H-cell and conductivity experiments demonstrate that benzyl 1-methyl imidazolium groups polysulfone...

POWELL, D. W. Intestinal conductance and permselectiuity changes z.&h thcophylline and choleragen. Am. J. Physiol. 227(6) : 1436-1443. 1974.-Theophylline and choleragen reduced the electrical conductance of the in vitro rabbit ileum SOc/, and 25yi, respectively, increased the potential difference and caused only a relatively short-lived increase in short-circuit current. The increase in shortci...

To explore the mechanism of glomerular permselectivity defect in passive Heymann nephritis, an experimental model of human membranous glomerulopathy, Munich-Wistar rats were subjected to both micropuncture assessment of glomerular hemodynamics and whole kidney clearance measurements of graded size dextrans 10 days after injection of sheep anti-rat tubular antigen (anti-Fx1A). Compared with norm...

Cationic colloidal gold (CCG), a polycationic histochemical probe, was used to analyze the distribution of glomerular basement membrane (GBM) polyanions, mainly heparan sulfate proteoglycan in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHR) with or without salt loading and antihypertensive treatment with propranolol. The changes of mean GBM width and anionic sites distribution were assessed by electron mic...
