The application of ultrafiltration and microfiltration to protein solutions is hindered by
membrane fouling that results in a decrease in the permeate flux and protein transmission …

Retinoblastoma is a rare eye tumor of childhood that arises in the retina. It is the most
common intraocular malignancy of infancy and childhood; with an incidence of 1/15,000 …

The analysis of solute and solvent transport through capillaries according to sieving and
Poiseuille flow models allows the calculation of retention curves corresponding to a given …

The fabrication of alumina ultrafiltration membranes using acetic acid surface stabilized
alumina nanoparticles (A-alumoxanes) has been investigated. The pore size, pore size …

Estimation of membrane molecular weight cut off (MWCO) in the range between
ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) is challenging because retention is not controlled …

The main limitation of the ultrafiltration (UF) process identified in drinking water treatment is
membrane fouling. Although adsorption of natural organic matter (NOM) is known to cause …

This paper presents a detailed investigation of fouling mechanisms for ultrafiltration
membranes with polysaccharides obtained by studying membrane–solute (static adsorption) …

Although dextran sieving is often used to evaluate the pore size characteristics of the
ultrafiltration membranes, there is still considerable disagreement regarding the proper …

Hemicelluloses could be used to replace fossil-based materials in several high-value-added
products. Today, vast amounts of hemicelluloses are discharged from pulp mills all over the …

This paper describes the transport process, rejection curve and molecular weight cut-off
(MWCO) of ultrafiltration membranes by using a log-normal distribution, Poiseuille flow and …
