摘要:
There is described a filtration membrane. The membrane comprising a porous substrate layer and an active layer arranged over at least a part of the substrate layer. The active layer comprises a metal-organic framework (MOF). There is also described methods for of producing a filtration membrane and uses of the filtration membrane for water treatment.
摘要:
Using zeolites as the active adsorbent, adsorbent laminates have been fabricated with various sheet supports. These adsorbent laminates have been successfully operated for oxygen enrichment at high PSA cycle frequencies, such as upwards of at least 150 cycles per minute. Methods for making suitable adsorbent laminates are described. The methods generally involve forming a slurry comprising a liquid suspending agent, an adsorbent and a binder. Laminates are made by applying the slurry to support material or admixing support material with the slurry. The slurry can be applied to support material using a variety of techniques, including roll coaters, split roll coaters, electrophoretic deposition, etc. One method for making laminates by mixing support material with the adsorbent slurry comprises deposition the slurry onto a foraminous wire, draining the slurry material, and pressing the material to form a ceramic adsorbent paper. Spacers can be formed on adsorbent laminates to space one laminate from another. The spacer dimensions can be uniform, or can vary along a laminate, such as increasing in height from a first end to a second end of the laminate. Gas flow-through apertures also can be formed on laminates. The laminates are adjacent one another to define flow channel between adjacent bodies, whereby a portion of a gas flowing through the flow channels flows through the apertures to facilitate pressure equalization in the adsorbent structure.
摘要:
Disclosed are purification systems and methods for providing purified preparations of antibodies from a fluid, particularly a biological fluid comprising or suspected to contain antibody (e.g., blood, serum, plasma, ascites fluid). Reusable and stable synthetic purification columns comprising membranes of a suitable separation matrix material, such as a nylon membrane or regenerated cellulose membrane, having conjugated thereto a small molecule capture ligand, such as a short peptide or protein capable of acting as a ligand for a particular antibody of interest, such as a peptide having a sequence with binding affinity for a nucleotide binding site (NBS) of a selected antibody of interest, are also provided. Methods of preparing the purification columns are also disclosed. Methods for preparing high yield and high purity therapeutic antibody preparations, such as anti-cancer therapeutics, from a biological fluid, are also presented.

摘要:
The present invention relates generally to compositions for use in biological and chemical separations, as well as other applications. More specifically, the present invention relates to hybrid felts fabricated from electrospun nanofibers with high permeance and high capacity. Such hybrid felts utilize derivatized cellulose, and at least one non-cellulose-based polymer that may be removed from the felt by subjecting it to moderately elevated temperatures and/or solvents capable of dissolving the non-cellulose-based polymer to leave behind a porous nanofiber felt having more uniform pore sizes and other enhanced properties when compared to single component nanofiber felts.
摘要:
Metal-binding proteins, such as metallothionein proteins, are disclosed for removing metals from substrates in need of having such metals removed therefrom. Specifically, metallothionein proteins according to SEQ ID NO:1, 2, or 9-20 are disclosed for removing metals from liquid substrates. Associated methods for removing metals from substrates using metallothionein proteins are also disclosed.
