    Abstract: Disclosed herein are hydrophilic microfibers and hydrophilic nanofibers, and methods for making these hydrophilic microfibers and nanofibers. The hydrophilic microfibers and/or nanofibers provide hydrophilic and/or self-cleaning properties when incorporated in paints and coatings. These hydrophilic microfibers and/or hydrophilic nanofibers may include polymers. In some embodiments, the hydrophilic microfibers and/or hydrophilic nanofibers may be surface activated polymers. Surface activation may involve oxidation of the polymers, which may result in formation of hydrophilic moieties on the surface of the polymers. In some embodiments, the hydrophilic microfibers and/or hydrophilic nanofibers may include hydrophilic groups on the surface and/or at one or both ends of the microfiber or the nanofiber.

    Abstract: Technologies are generally described for a gas filtration device including an array of parallel carbon nanotubes. The carbon nanotubes may extend between first and second substrates, and the ends of the carbon nanotubes may be embedded in the substrates and cut to expose openings at each end of the carbon nanotubes. The carbon nanotubes may be composed from a graphene membrane which may be perforated with a plurality of discrete pores of a selected size for enabling one or more molecules to pass through the pores. A fluid mixture including two or more molecules for filtering may be directed through the first openings of the array of nanotubes, and the fluid mixture may be filtered by enabling smaller molecules to pass through the discrete pores of the graphene membrane walls of the carbon nanotubes to produce in a filtrate fraction including the smaller molecules and a retentate fraction including larger molecules.

    Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for identifying and sorting cells based on the cells' response to an external stimulus. Cellular adherence to liquid crystals with tunable wettability is measured before and after an induced change in the liquid crystal wettability. The cell-based liquid crystal reorientation can be measured and used for monitoring and sorting of cells in a label-free manner, and thus provides a positive method for selecting cells, such as stem cells, for use in tissue engineering applications.
