Sampling from the vat during cheesemaking may be necessary to study impact of curd washing, which affects both whey composition and curd’s aqueous phase. The objective this work was develop a sieving protocol curd–whey samples, ensuring enough time for drainage free whey, while limiting loss phase entrapped in grains. We studied flow rate lactose content sieving. Both measurements showed two-st...

We prove an instance of the cyclic sieving phenomenon, occurring in the context of noncrossing parititions for well-generated complex reflection groups.

Springer’s theory of regular elements in complex reflection groups is generalized to arbitrary fields. Consequences for the cyclic sieving phenomenon in combinatorics are discussed.

Electropolymerized conjugated microporous polymer (CMP) membranes enable molecular sieving in organic solvents under extreme conditions.
