Bisphenol A (BPA), a component of some dialysis membranes, accumulates in CKD. Observational studies have linked BPA exposure to kidney and cardiovascular injury in humans, and animal studies have described a causative link. Normal kidneys rapidly excrete BPA, but insufficient excretion may sensitize patients with CKD to adverse the effects of BPA. Using a crossover design, we studied the effec...

Inorganic-organic composite electrolyte membranes were fabricated from CsXH3-XPMo12O40 (CsPOMo) and quaternary diazabicyclo-octane polysulfone (QDPSU) using a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) porous matrix for the application of intermediate temperature fuel cells. The CsPOMo/QDPSU/PTFE composite membrane was made proton conducting by using a relatively low phosphoric acid loading, which benefits...

The problem of preparation drinking water is considered, which includes the study system "diluted aqueous solution - membrane corrected diluted solution", where membrane, as main element and external factor baromembrane processes, must meet certain physicochemical parameters requirements. It shown that for effective use processes in solving adjusting composition solutions, it necessary to creat...
