Adsorption of cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) at cellular membranes is the first and necessary step for their subsequent translocation across into cytosol. It has been experimentally shown that...

Vapor nanobubble-mediated photoporation has evolved into a promising physical intracellular delivery technology. When irradiated with short but intense laser pulses, photothermal nanomaterials can generate vapor nanobubbles that, when they collapse, induce transient membrane pores through which exogenous effector molecules be delivered the cells. Interestingly, this technique offers high-throug...

Ionic and covalent cross-linking of an acid–base blend is used to manufacture membranes with high stability against dissolution reduced isopropanol acetone crossover for direct-isopropanol fuel cell applications.

drinking water has received considerable attention recently. however, misuse and mismanagement have resulted in a rapid and widespread decline in source-water quality and supply. water quality guidelines can be used to identify constituents of concern in water, to determine the levels to which the constituents of water must be treated for drinking purposes. membrane technology for the water cyc...

We report on an electrochemically driven CO2 separation process employing commercial anion exchange membranes to directly remove from a dilute gas mixture and transport it across cell. This m...
